Hayashi

Hayashi(林) is a sake brand crafted by Hayashi Shuzojo in Toyama, Japan. Explore their full lineup of 9 sakes on OneSip.

Hayashi Shuzojo in Asahi-machi, Toyama, dates its founding to 1626, making it one of the oldest breweries in the prefecture, with origins tied to a samurai family that once guarded a major checkpoint of the Kaga Domain. The Hayashi brand itself is a limited-release label crafted by the brewery's current head brewer using only pure-rice recipes and carefully sourced sake rice from selected cultivation regions, including locally grown Toyama varieties alongside Yamadanishiki and Omachi from other prefectures. The range is noted for a soft texture with defined structure and a precise acidity that sharpens the overall impression.
