About
Born in 1966 as the shared brand of the Kagoshima brewers’ cooperative and incorporated in 1970. It uses only Kagoshima sweet potatoes, such as Kogane Sengan, and Nanakubo spring water, aging spirits in clay jars, wooden casks and tanks. The range runs from the classic Satsuma Muso to the outdoor-themed Camp Muso.
