Founded in 1758, Fukugen Brewery is an old established sake producer, ever since the Edo period, a time when samurai rode the streets and ruled the land. We do not make sake in large quantities, but only for the sake of our dreams, carefully brewed by our toji (master brewer). Sake brewing is done day and night in Azumino during the coldest season. The brewing water comes from a cold, clear well that gushes out from the North Alps. Sake rice is grown in-house by the brewery staff using a pesticide-reducing agricultural method. The secret techniques of the Fukugen toji have been handed down from generation to generation since the Edo period. We will continue to brew sake that we believe is "the one", without being influenced by the trends of the times.
