AKEBONO SHUZO

It is located in the middle of Aizu basin, where it is freezing in winter, hot in summer.
We see the growth of local rice and understand the characteristics and brew Sake to bring its beauty out.
We aim to produce the Sake naturally exuding its characteristics.

COMMITMENT

Transparency is the most important for us. To create the crystal-clear Sake, we keep making the brewery and equipment clean.

Also, to maintain transparency until customers drink our Sake, we thoroughly control the temperature during the entire process of brewing and storing Sake.

PRIZE

・U.S National Sake Appraisal 2019

RICE

80% of the rice we use is the local rice. We gradually increase the ratio of local rice and aim to use only local rice, and produce the world-standard Sake.

WATER

We use underground water called ``Tatsumi``, which is popular as the high-quality water. It's our general drinking water too.

SKILL

Clean and careful brewing makes the transparency of Sake. To maintain transparency until customers drink our Sake, we thoroughly control the temperature during the entire process of brewing and storing Sake.
It's quite essential to minimize the stress of heat against Sake to create the crystal clear texture.

MILD

We want to be the window to feel ``Fukushima`` by brewing Sake with using the local rice and water. We respect and love our home ground. To express our appreciation, it's necessary to be honest and humble. Our ideal goal is far beyond; we need to keep challenging!!
