Release: Sakurajima Nengou Shochu 2025

Hombo Shuzo Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce the release of “Sakurajima Nengou Shochu 2025”.
This shochu allows you to “enjoy the harvest and seasonality of the year,” using only sweet potatoes harvested in 2025, which are then distilled and bottled.
Product Description
In addition to savoring the seasonal taste of shochu, bottle aging allows you to enjoy the evolving aroma and flavor, as well as the differences in taste from year to year’s harvest. Our Sakurajima Nengou Shochu also features an art label every year.
This year’s label design is a work by Mr. Yoshiaki Murayama, who won the Sakurajima Art Label Award at the “26th Sakurajima Art Exhibition” held in February 2025. Please enjoy the changing label design each year as well.
