About the brewery

Asakan Shuzouten is a sake brewery founded in 1919 in Furukawa, Osaki City, Miyagi Prefecture. It uses finely filtered purified water for soaking, brewing and dilution, aiming for sake that is refreshing yet full-bodied. Furukawa is the birthplace of the Sasanishiki rice variety, and the brewery uses sake rice selected for brewing. Its flagship brand is Yoimai (酔舞); it also makes the lightly sparkling sake "Michinoku no Hana" (みちのくの華) and the blueberry liqueur "Mezake" (目酒).
