The current brewery was founded in 1866 in a town renowned for its beautiful cherry blossoms. Located in the Ina Valley, surrounded by the Southern and Central Alps, the area offers an ideal environment for sake brewing. The water used comes from the pristine snowmelt of the Southern Alps and is rich in minerals, greatly enhancing the quality and flavor of the sake. By harnessing the blessings of the local natural environment and paying meticulous attention to both ingredients and technique, the brewery produces sake with a distinctive, deep flavor. Blending traditional craftsmanship with the beauty of its surroundings, the brewery continues to brew sake with passion, aiming to contribute to both the local community and the broader culture of Japanese sake.
