Morimoto Sôsetsu was a Satsuma han official, the younger brother of court physician Morimoto Kôken.
He was one of several tens of officials exiled in the 1808 Kinshirokukuzure Incident, in which Shimazu Shigehide railed against Shimazu Narinobu's policy changes, and sought to sweep away any supporters of Narinobu's agenda. Sôsetsu was exiled to a remote island.
