About
Shirai Shuzoten is a sake brewery in Nagaino (永井野), Aizumisato Town, Onuma District, Fukushima Prefecture. It was founded in 1765 (Meiwa 2) under the trade name Miyakawaya (宮川屋), taken from the nearby Miyakawa River. The ninth-generation owner, Eiichi Shirai, works as both brewery owner and master brewer (kuramoto-toji). Alongside Bandaiho, a brand long familiar to local drinkers, the brewery has made Kaze ga Fuku since the 2005 fiscal year (Heisei 17), brewed with the yamahai method, in which fermentation relies on naturally occurring lactic acid. At the Annual Japan Sake Awards for the 2025 sake brewing year (Reiwa 7), Bandaiho won a gold prize.
