Kireishuzo Co.,Ltd
Hiroshima
As the word "crane is a thousand years, is a perennial year", the "turtle age", which was named with the meaning of long life and eternal prosperity, was used as "Yoshidaya sake" in the old days. In the early Meiji era, Kotaro Ishii was named.
We changed the name from Yoshidaya's sake to "turtle age", polished the taste, and the goodness of people to people has been handed down, and we continue to attract many sake customers.
