Regional characteristics

This brewery is located in Niigata Prefecture, where heavy snow falls during winter, and many people visit ski fields there. Around the brewery, there is the large-scale multilevel intersection of the Shinkawa River, which was dug by hand in the Edo period, and the Nishikawa River, a Class A river, making for spectacular scenery. The history of Niigata's rich granary can be felt in the air here. By using the groundwater, which is sand filtered in the dune land, as preparation water, this brewery fully utilizes the local terroir for their sake making.
