Asama Shuzo Co.,Ltd
Gunma
At the factory completed in September 1998, with the skills of the brewer and the thorough quality control, we are particular about the highest raw materials for local sake that satisfies sake lovers. We are working to make sake that will please our customers by taking advantage of the harsh colds of winter, which grows the flavor of natural water and sake that springs out from the locals.
