対馬やまねこ
Since 1919 — 対馬市, Nagasaki
Kawachi Shuzo, founded in 1919 and renamed Shiratake Shuzo in October 2023, is the only brewery on Tsushima, making sake, shochu and liqueurs for about a century. Its Tsushima Yamaneko blends barley and rice shochu 80:20 — a rare recipe whose name winks at the island's wildcat and at old slang for moonshine — while the sake Shiratake holds three straight national golds.
