Fuou (Kitagawa Honke)

"Those with rich hearts will find happiness in their later years." This is the wish embedded within Fuou. It is said that Kitagawa Honke was founded even before Meireki 3 (1657). During the Edo period, they operated a riverside inn along the Uji River, and their homemade sake, known as "Funaya no Sake," was transported to Osaka and Edo on thirty-koku boats and became widely enjoyed. In the 43rd year of Meiji, the brand name was changed to "Fuou" after finding the expression "Fu Shi Ou" in a Chinese poem. Here, "Fu" does not refer to money, but to spiritual richness. Its specialty is a mellow and elegant flavor brewed with high-quality groundwater from Fushimi. This is a cup from a long-established Fushimi brewery with over 360 years of history, inviting you to savor both the taste and the sentiment imbued in its name.
