Iwanami

Iwanami(岩波) is a sake brand crafted by Iwanamishuzo & Co. in Nagano, Japan. Explore their full lineup of 15 sakes on OneSip.

Iwanami is produced by Iwanami Shuzo in the historic castle town of Matsumoto, Nagano Prefecture, where the brewery has operated since 1872 with a distinct philosophy: refusing to make the lean, dry style that dominated Japanese sake trends, instead committing to what it describes as sake where richness and sharpness coexist. All production is sourced in-house with no outsourcing, and the lineup is built around local Nagano rice varieties alongside Hyogo-grown Yamada Nishiki.
