Our sake brewery was established in the 2nd year of the Manji era (1659) during the rule of Tokugawa Ietsuna, the fourth shogun of the Tokugawa dynasty. As the city of Edo enjoyed a period of growth and prosperity, our brewery achieved great popularity as a brewer of "kudari zake" (sake transported from Nada to Edo), and during the Bunka and Bunsei eras of the late Edo period, we were able to thrive as a sake brewery. Under our company's vision of "tradition and innovation", we continue to uphold the "Kimoto style" of sake making that we have maintained since the Edo period. At the same time, through our product development efforts, we have also launched new trend-setting products, such as our "Shiboritate Gin-pack" (silver pack carton sake), produced using our patented sake brewing yeast and techniques, which has won us multiple awards in various contests. In 2016, we also announced the launch of our new "Hyaku Moku" brand of sake. Address 1-7-15 Mikage-honmachi, Higashinada-ku, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture 658-0046 Phone no.

Our Tokuwaka refined sake is carefully brewed using hand-brewing techniques.

As Nihonsakari Co., Ltd., a brewery that was founded in 1889 that is known for the jingle "Nihonsakari makes good sake", we have a relatively short history when compared to other sake breweries. However, we remain steadfast in our conviction that good "rice", "water", and "nature" is absolutely essential to making good sake. Good sake can only be brewed by satisfying these 3 factors. At Nihonsakari, we continue to brew sake in Nishinomiya while placing an unwavering emphasis on these factors, by making use of sakamai (sake brewing rice) that includes "Yamada Nishiki", the ideal rice for sake brewing, the famed "miyamizu", which is the ideal water for making sake, and the Rokko-oroshi north winds in winter that create the cold climate that is absolutely necessary for sake brewing.

Our sake brewery was established in the first year of the Bunkyu era (1861) in the late Edo period, and just as the name of our representative sake brand indicates, our "Nadajiman" ("the pride of Nada") was named as such to represent that it is a highly touted sake of the Nadagogo region, and under the motto of "Prizing quality above all else", it is brewed through a process where carefully selected sakamai (sake brewing rice) is rigorously polished and where our brewers performing painstaking brewing techniques using the famously divine "miyamizu" water, thereby creating a richly flavorful "sake that is best enjoyed in autumn". Upon being reorganized into a joint-stock company after the war, our "kokusan" symbol that had been in use since the prewar era was adopted as our company name, and today, we continue to inherit techniques that have been passed down in producing our Daiginjo "Kokusan Ichi".

In the 3rd year of the Meiji era (1870), our brewery received a shochu distilling license to produce "kasu-tori shochu" (distilled alcoholic beverage made by using sake kasu pressed sake "cake"), which we consider to be our date of establishment. In the 29th year of the Meiji era (1896), we began manufacturing "hon-mirin" (rice wine for cooking) by making use of shochu as a raw ingredient, and later, in the 37th year of the Meiji era (1904), we began producing and selling Nara-zuke pickles made using sake kasu, hon-mirin, and mirin-kasu. Starting with "shochu" and later moving on to "hon-mirin" and "Nara-zuke pickles", we continued to refine our techniques to provide our customers with products with greater added value, and today, we produce Nara-zuke pickles under our "Konan Zuke" brand (trademark registered in 1930).

Established in 1717 (2nd year of the Kyoho era) during the reign of Tokugawa Yoshimune, our brewery traces its origins back to when our first-generation owner began brewing sake in Nishi-Go of Nada as a subsidiary business to his rice trading business. The "※" (Japanese asterisk) used for the Sawanotsuru brand is a symbol that represents rice. Our brewery's "single-minded focus on rice, and on producing sake and Junmai sake made purely from rice" can be traced back to these origins. As the "mainstay of the sake of Nada", we aim to combine rice (Yamada Nishiki), water (miyamizu), and people (Tamba Toji) with the goal of achieving the number one quality in Japan.
