Chikun (Ikeda Sake Brewery)

Chikun has been beloved for approximately 130 years in Maizuru, a port town on the Sea of Japan. Ikeda Sake Brewery was founded in 1879. As the sole brewery in Maizuru City, known as 'Kyoto by the Sea,' they have continued to protect their sake, 'Chikun,' for over 130 years. Their goal is to create 'sake that brings a smile to your face.' They use subsoil water from the Yura River, which flows right next to the brewery, as brewing water, and brew 100% rice junmai sake using locally grown rice. The local sake is so deeply loved by the people of Maizuru that a fan club has even been formed by local enthusiasts. This is a drink you'll want to enjoy alongside the seasonal seafood of Maizuru. It is a gentle-tasting local sake that softly accompanies the dining tables of this port town, bringing a smile with every sip.
