The Culinary
Tradition

Shochu culture has always been accompanied by food.
Try pairing a Kirishima Shuzo’s Honkaku Shochu with the delicious cuisine of Kyushu.

With its rich natural environment and long history of interaction with foreign countries, Kyushu offers a unique and varied food culture.
These time-honored flavors continue to be appreciated and passed down to this day.
