Kobayashi Shuzojo is a sake brewery established in 1874 in Choshi, Chiba Prefecture, one of the three remaining breweries in a city historically known for fishing and soy sauce production. The Shocho brand centers on the brewery's commitment to quality-first brewing, with their Namazake Honjozo noted for a light taste and refreshing aroma suited to everyday drinking. More than 120 years of operation in this coastal city's fermentation culture inform the brewery's dedication to approachable, consistent craft.
