Hatsugasumi is brewed by Kubo Honke Shuzo, a family brewery with over 300 years of history located in the riverside village of Ouda in Nara Prefecture. The brewery is particularly devoted to the kimoto method, a labor-intensive traditional technique that encourages natural lactic acid fermentation and produces sake with pronounced umami and gentle aromatics. Hatsugasumi stands as one of the established expressions from this long-running Nara producer.
