Founded in 1675 in Saijo, Higashihiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture, Hakubotan Sake Brewery operates in an ideal environment for sake-making with high-quality water, sake rice, climate, and Hiroshima toji (master brewers). The brewery has long adhered to traditions and techniques passed down through generations. Quality control is rigorous, utilizing both chemical analysis and human senses. Currently, the brewery operates four sake-making facilities. The flagship 'Hakubotan Junmai Ginjo' won the Grand Gold Prize in the 2023 'Wine Glass Award for Delicious Japanese Sake,' recognized for its rich rice flavor and aroma, making it perfect as a food-pairing sake.
