Gunma
Genroku 3rd (1690) The first Chobei starts making sake brewing. Until the Edo period, Nagabei was invaded for generations, and the brand of sake was "Longmori."
When the Shogunate account magistrate and Oguri Uenosuke traveled to the United States in the first year of Manno, the ancestors followed and returned safely after returning to Japan, and raised the celebration in a large cup, and the sake name was renovated as the "Oshiga Cup."
