Homare Sake Brewery

【World's Best Title】Experience the essence of 'Homare Shuzou' crafted by famous water and the four seasons

Homare Shuzou, born from the rich nature of Kitakata and a dedication to sake brewing, won the title of 'World's Best' at the world's largest wine competition (IWC) in the sake category in 2015, competing against 876 brands. The key to sake brewing is the underground water 'Kitakata Meisui' that springs from the Iide mountain range. This soft water brings out a versatile and mellow flavor.
