Profile: Nagaragawa is the river that has been a central fishing spot for 1300 years - this water ultimately finds its way into KomachiShuzo's underground well water. They are the proud winners of several competitions, and are often featured on magazines due to their high quality sake and skill level in brewing.Their sake is also famously known as "Symphony Sake" due to the fact that they play music while the sake is fermenting in the tanks - some say this has an effect on the final product.
