Wakatakeya (Wakatakeya Shuzojo)

One of Kyushu's most prominent long-established breweries, passed down in the land of Tanushimaru for over 300 years. Wakatakeya Shuzojo began in 1699 (Genroku 12) when the first head, Denbe, built the brewery in Tanushimaru, Kurume City. The passion of the founder, who worked hard to brew sake even by going into debt to buy rice, has been passed down to the current 14th generation head. They continue to carefully brew sake using the pure water from a well used since the founding and local rice. It is also known that the previous generation spent over a decade reviving 'Hakata Nerizake', a sweet cloudy sake mentioned in literature from the Muromachi period. This bottle carries the weight of history, preserved by one of Kyushu's oldest breweries. The soft flavor nurtured by the underground water of the Einoren Mountains gently complements any dish. Please enjoy the taste along with its three-hundred-year story.
