About the brewery
Dewazakura Shuzo is a pioneer of ginjo sake (quality sake). In the old days, sake was cheap as it was for blue-collar workers, and the breweries brewed ginjo sake just for contests. Dewazakura was one of the first breweries who market ginjo sake. Their quality standard is very high, witnessed by winning IWC Sake Champion twice. They are the brewery who never stops challenging - they will start to grow their own sake rice shortly. There are reasons why Dewazakura is marketed worldwide.
