[The blissful drops born from the bond between mother and child] The tradition and innovation preserved by 'Suzunoi Sake Brewery'

'Suzunoi Sake Brewery', which has been marking nearly 200 years since its establishment in the Tenpo era in Aizubakushita town. There were times when the existence of the brewery was in jeopardy, but now, the mother, Masumi, who is a rare 'female toji' in Japan, and her son, Takayuki, who inherits her passion, are working together in sake brewing. Each drop born from this brewery carries the bond of family and deep respect for the land of Aizu.

■ A soft mouthfeel and a strong 'core'

The sake of Suzunoi, especially the representative brands 'Suzunoi' and 'Kotobuki', is characterized by a gentleness that quietly accompanies the drinker’s heart.

  • Traditional 'handcrafted': Without relying too much on mechanization, we thoroughly engage in sake brewing with sharpened senses. The pure water of Aizu and carefully selected rice are transformed into a magically smooth flavor by the hands of the brewery staff.
  • Challenge for the next generation: While preserving the good old traditions, the 'Suzunoi Junmai Ginjo' crafted by Takayuki features a fresh and vibrant aroma that suits modern dining tables. Tradition and innovation are beautifully harmonized.

■ A celebratory sake that resonates across generations

As the name 'Kotobuki' suggests, the sake from this brewery has long adorned local celebrations.

  • A cup that brings smiles: The feelings of the giver and the joy of the receiver. Its dignified taste, which accompanies life's milestones, continues to be loved by many even today.

Sake brewing that melts the harsh winter of Aizu with warm passion. Why not accompany a 'sincere cup' born from the overlapping thoughts of mother and child on your special anniversary?
