Azumamine

This is the local sake of the Azumamine Sake Brewery in Shiwa Town, known as the brewery that provided the impetus for the creation of the Nanbu Toji. Its roots trace back to the 1670s, when Omi merchants established a sake shop in the land of Shiwa. It is said that local farmers assisting with the brewing at this brewery led to the birth of the Nanbu Toji, Japan's largest group of master brewers. The brewery was formally established as the Shiwa Sake Brewery in 1781 during the mid-Edo period and has accumulated a long history. It is an indispensable brewery when discussing the history of Shiwa, the home of the Nanbu Toji. With a flavor that shines with inherited techniques, this sake is beloved by local gourmets. Please take your time to savor it while reflecting on the origins of Iwate's sake culture.
