Established in 1832, Tatenokawa Brewery is located in Sakata City, Yamagata prefecture, the only city in Japan with the character for "sake".
Brewing solely Junmai Daiginjo Sake, we polish the rice in-house and source specially cultivated sake rice with fewer than 50% of the pesticides/chemical fertilizers of conventional cultivation.
Committed to promoting local agriculture, we contract with local rice farmers and strive to expand rice consumption through our sake.
With high-quality soft water from Chokai, Gassan, Yudono mountains and superior sake rice from the Shonai Rice Farm, we craft sake that captures sweetness of the rice.
A world-leading sake brand committed to balancing sustainability with innovation.
