Tatenokawa Shuzo
Tatenokawa Shuzo has its origins in 1832: The good quality of the water contributed to the production of shubo (sake fermentation starter) by Heishiro, a local public figure.
He began producing sake in 1854. Heishiro offered his sake to the local lord, who liked it and named it Tatenokawa.
Today, the Tatenokawa brewery is a small kura, made up of five people, which continues the tradition of producing quality sake by hand.
