Tamanohikari Brewing Company

Founded in 1673 in the historic Fushimi region, Tamanohikari Brewing Company is known as the premium sake maker for junmai and ginjo types. They were the first to resist the addition of excessive distilled alcohol to survive through the Second World War. They continue the same policy to make sake you will never get tired of, and make your meal even more enjoyable. They pay the utmost attention to their ingredients: the deep, stable water source with which they are blessed, and their carefully grown rice and koji.
