Generations of Expertise Since 1838

Since 1838, the tradition of crafting sake has been handed down for generations in our breweries, and each batch is still crafted with the same meticulous attention to detail.

Though some of the methods used to craft the sake remain the same, new technologies have allowed the sake to reach an even higher level of sophistication and quality. As a result, the sake is able to honor both its past and its future.

「至高の輝き、心を奪う極上の贅沢」

氷の響き、醸し出す極上の逸品

Iced.

Slowly and attentively fermented below 0 °C

Extracting the purest water in Japan from the snow alps areas, as it’s filtered through a naturally formed obsidian riverbed, the softest brewing water creates a challenge to brew sake. Turning the downside into an upside, we borrow the power of time and the virtue of patience to brew our sake. Overtime, the modest mineral levels gently feed the self-cultivated yeast to form a miracle growing process in a below-zero temperature environment, which in turn generates a healthy medium for a perfect fermentation of the koji mash to drive out the essentials of the rice at a deeper and richer level. Through a long, labor intensive, slow and attentive fermentation process, the finest and delightful sake is yielded.

Sources So Pure

Snow mountain glacier water, Organic rice

At our brewery, we only use the finest ingredients to produce a high-end Japanese sake. We source our purest water from the snow-capped mountains, and our clear sky and ample sunlight provides the perfect environment for our organic and sustainable ingredients.

 

Our local farm provides us with contract-grown rice, which is carefully chosen and inspected for quality. We also ensure that all our ingredients come from local, organic and sustainable sources. The rice is also harvested through fair-trade contract cultivation with young local farmers.

We use a luxurious super soft water, one of the best drinking water in Japan. The water is snow water filtered through mountains comprised of Obsidian. Treated by the natural energy field, far-infrared rays, and the magnetic force of Obsidian, the super soft water comes with a less aggregation of water molecules. The characteristic of the Obsidian water brings out the fragrance and delicious taste of the rice giving a moment of minerality to the sake.

Takes a Master to Make Masterpieces

Labor, Care, and Dedication

At our brewery, we take great pride in our hand brewed sake. Our brewing masters work for long hours to create a slow and attentive fermentation process, all done with care and dedication. We believe that brewing the perfect sake is a life time goal, and we strive to make sure that every bottle of sake is brewed with the utmost care and dedication. These traditional methods are to bring out the depth of flavor and character of our sake, and never cut corners in order to ensure the perfect flavor. We believe that hand brewed sake is a labor of love, and we make sure to put our heart into every brew.

Secret is Safe when it is at Home

Family self-cultivated secret Koji and Kobo

Our brewery isolated Koji and yeast has been cultivated since the founding of our brewery, and is a family kept secret that has been passed on for generations. The special yeast and koji is not circulated in the market, and is the magic touch that gives our premium and unique Japanese sake its distinctive profile. Our brewery isolated koji and yeast are the key ingredientd that bring out the best flavor and aroma in our sake.
