Brewery Description

Founded here in 1912. Uchinomachi, where our storehouse is located, is located to the west of Niigata City and is also known as the city of Niigata University.

Since ancient times, the underground water of the Shinano River has been abundant, and it is a land blessed with good quality water. You can overlook the grade separation of Nishikawa, which is a tributary of the Shinano River, and Shinkawa, which was dug manually 200 years ago, and you can feel the history of the rich breadbasket.

Our brewery is made of old-fashioned clay walls, and the temperature difference between the four seasons is small, making it an environment suitable for sake brewing. The 25 brewing tanks are equipped with an automatic cooling device to thoroughly control the temperature of stored sake as well as fermentation control of mash.
