Uzume

Uzume(鈿女) is a sake brand crafted by Ito Shuzou Co.,Ltd. in Mie, Japan. Explore their full lineup of 19 sakes on OneSip.

Uzume has been brewed by Ito Shuzou since 1847, at the foot of the Suzuka Mountains in Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture, where award-winning mineral water from the Sakura district forms the foundation of every sake. Named for Ama no Uzume, the Shinto goddess of entertainment and laughter, the brand reflects the fifth-generation brewer Ito Shun's intensely hands-on philosophy; he describes the brewery, run by just three family members, as feeling more like a personal laboratory than a production facility. Despite its small team, Uzume's range spans junmai daiginjo, yamahai, AWA sparkling sake, and aged expressions, all crafted largely by hand.
