TANAKA Shuzoten Inc

In 1789, the year of the French Revolution, Tanaka Shuzoten was
founded by Tanaka Rinbei in this town rich in Water and Rice.
At that time, he was the most famous Kimono businessman of Date clan.
Since inception, Tanaka Shuzoten has inherited traditional sake rewing methods (such as the kimoto and yamahai brewing methods) for more than 230 years while using high-quality water and rice in the production of sake.
We, at Tanaka Shuzoten, continue with manual processes-making koji entirely by the koji tray method, steaming rice in a traditional tub (koshiki), and applying cedar warmer for shubo making, etc.
Sake with an “assertive sake texture” is thus produced.
Keeping to the traditional sake production method, we have become a brewery trusted by our local community.
