EST. 1919
半ぴどん
Since 1919 — 串間市, Miyazaki
Kozo Shuzo of Kushima, founded in 1919 and renamed in 2003, works entirely by hand — mash, fermentation, distillation and bottling — in unglazed clay pots sunk halfway into the volcanic-ash earth. Yeasts living in the kura's old wooden walls round the spirit, brewed from on-site spring water and local ingredients. No tours.
