This brewery, located at the base of Mount Kakuda in the Echigo Plain, has been producing sake for about 400 years. In response to the recent decline in sake popularity, they are challenging the trend with their rich, umami-forward style of sake, contrasting with the prevalent dry styles in Niigata. Embracing both traditional methods and new techniques amidst the majestic plains, mountains, and sea, they continue to craft sake with a commitment to innovation and heritage.
