TATENOKAWA SHUZO
Brewery: Tatenokawa, Inc.
Founded: 1832
Tatenokawa was the first sake brewery in Yamagata to brew exclusively Junmai Daiginjo-class sake, guided by their 100-year vision of crafting exceptional sake with unwavering dedication and a focus on continuous quality improvement. Nearly all of the rice they use is locally grown Miyama Nishiki, Dewasansan and Soube wase. In 2014, ANA International picked this sake for their First Class and Business Class sake.
