About The Brewery

About The Brewery

Our company is located in Yamazaki-cho, Shiso City, Hyogo Prefecture, a former castle town on the banks of the Ibo River where Takaseboats are said to have once carried rice and lumber. The company was founded in 1837 (Tempo 8) during the Edo period, approximately 180 years ago. The brewery was founded in 1837 (Tempo 8) during the Edo period (1603-1868), and a reference in the Banshu historical book "Harima Fudoki" states that Iwa-no-okami (the Great God of Iwa) first brewed sake in this area. Currently, the 6th head of the brewery is trying to preserve the brewery's history and take on new challenges to pass it on to the next generation.
