This is the courtyard, the center of our brewery.
Here is a question for you. What is essential to making good, quality sake?
The answer is the use of two, quality main ingredients; rice and water, applied with the technique of the craftsmen.
First, rice.
Rice is a key ingredient greatly affecting the sake’s quality. As we still grow rice, we are able to select the rice best suited to our sake and cultivate it ourselves. Only 2% of sake breweries in Japan are able to do this so this is something we take a lot of pride in.
Next, water.
Water also has an equally large impact on the sake’s quality. This area is home to a high-quality water source (yes, but what is “it”, specifically) known to be one of Japan’s top 100. This top-quality water is perfect for making sake and is a vital ingredient used in making ours.
Finally, technique.
Aside from top-grade rice and water, good sake requires a high level of skill and experience to make the most of its ingredients’ qualities. Our brewery has five certified top-class brewing specialists, winning awards at sake competitions inside and outside Japan every year.
Next, we will cover the rice milling room. Please make your way there now.
