Mr. Shinozaki heads SHINDO LAB.
SHINDO distillery started in 2021 as the first craft whiskey distillery in Fukuoka Prefecture.
The parent company of SHINDO LAB, which operates the distillery, is Shinozaki, which was founded in the late Edo period as a sake brewer.
This company is involved in a variety of products, from brewed sake to distilled spirits and non-alcoholic amazake.
SHINDO LAB is an experimental facility for more challenging sake production, and currently operates a Shindo distillery for whiskey and a winery in Asakura City.
Leading the whiskey production is Michiaki Shinozaki, the eighth generation of Shinozaki's family.
The source of the idea is said to be the "production of whiskey using koji," which was conceived by Dr. Jokichi Takamine, a chemist to whom Mr. Shinozaki's father, Hiroyuki, the seventh generation, is devoted.
