About
Founded in 1833 (Tenpo 4), Kusumi Shuzo is a sake brewery in Nagaoka, Niigata Prefecture, in what was formerly Washima Village. Water that springs from the hill behind the brewery is designated one of Niigata Prefecture's famous waters and is used as the brewing water. The sixth-generation owner tracked down and revived the legendary sake rice Kame no O, and in 1983 (Showa 58) the brewery released the Junmai Daiginjo Kamenoo. This story became the inspiration for the manga Natsuko no Sake. The brewery's flagship brand is Kiyoizumi, brewed with care from Niigata rice using the skills of Echigo toji (master brewers).
