Shojo

Shojo is brewed by Kitamura Shuzo in Yoshino Town, Nara Prefecture, set among the celebrated cherry blossom forests and historic cedar groves of Yoshinoyama. The brewery takes a steady, unpretentious approach to its craft, aiming to make good sake without chasing trends or fashion. Yoshino's Yoshino-sugi cedar trees, prized for their straight grain and used in traditional sake barrels, form part of the natural heritage surrounding this family-run producer.
