Nigata
Founded in 1830 (Tenpo) in Asahi, Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture, where paddy fields and satoyama spread. Over 180 years, the soft water of the clear underwater vein flowing through the grounds of the founding area, the high -quality sake rice growing while repeated research with local farmers, and the wisdom and basic research inherited by Mr. Mori Koshiji. We continue to make sincere sake brewing that is particular about Niigata. All of the quality and customer -oriented in all. That is the policy of Asahi Sake Brewery.
