Ohira Shuzo Co.,Ltd

Tochigi
We inherit the traditional techniques of Echigo Mori and make handmade and polite sake brewing. The whole amount is squeezed in a full -fledged wooden tank, so you can make seasonal sake and freshly squeezed sake. There is also a long -term storage sake (treasured sake) with its own flavor and umami.
