Kirinzan

A light and dry sake that has been preserved for over 170 years in the forest-surrounded town of Agano. Since its founding in Tenpo 14 (1843), Kirinzan Sake Brewery has remained steadfast in its commitment to brewing dry sake. The brewery is situated amidst the rich nature where the Agano and Tsunanami Rivers flow. The ultra-soft water of the Tsunanami River, which originates from Mt. Mikaguradake and is purified as it passes through the forests, produces a clear, dry sake. It took approximately 30 years to achieve the use of 100% rice grown locally in Agano Town, working closely with contract farmers. Their commitment to reforestation—planting beech and oak trees in the source forests to protect the water—is also characteristic of this brewery. We invite you to enjoy a glass filled with deep affection for the land, paired with local cuisine. Its crisp, dry profile is its true charm.
