Founded in 1725 in the former town of Kasumi, Hyogo Prefecture, Kasumitsuru takes its name from the region’s historical roots. Today, it stands as an award-winning brand recognized both in Japan and internationally. Guided by the motto “A Pride of Tajima,” Kasumitsuru is cherished as a flagship sake of the local area. What sets Kasumitsuru apart is its dedication to traditional brewing methods. With a commitment to quality, regional pride, and heartfelt craftsmanship, the brewery specializes in the labor-intensive Kimoto and Yamahai brewing techniques. The sake is made from premium sake rice, including Yamada Nishiki and Gohyakumangoku, as well as Hyogo Kita Nishiki, cultivated by the brewery’s own brewers in company-owned rice fields. The brewing water comes from the soft underground springs of Mount Hyonosen, ensuring a sake that reflects the natural purity of its origin.
