Distillery Location: Oita Prefecture
Founded: 1958
Profile: The lush greenery, refreshing breezes and pure cool water of Oita Prefecture provide a fitting setting for the ditillery and brewery of Sanwa Shurui. Sanwa Shurui was started in 1958 when three companies merged. A fourth company joined the group the following year and this effectively brought foru fermenttaion- related licenses under the one roof. The company's motto is always the same: "Quality comes first."
