Saiya Brewing Company

Saiya Brewing Company, established in 1902, is located at the foothills of iconic Mount Chokai in Akita prefecture. Since 1989, the brewery has received countless accolades under the leadership of brewmaster Toichi Takahashi, who was awarded the prestigious Medal with Yellow Ribbon by the government. Their brewing method shows the utmost respect for nature by using all in-house cultured yeast, and carefully creating a superior environment for the microorganisms to produce their honest sake. Their signature style is sake with a gentle, rising texture on the palate, called “fukumi,” without a strong aroma, which requires masterful skill to achieve.
