POINT01
Commitment to
Four Seasons
Brewery

Four seasons brewing means brewing sake not only in winter but throughout the year.
Normally, sake is made for one year in winter (one season), but Nihon-Izumi has a sake brewery underground, which is rare in Japan, so the temperature is stable throughout the year.
On top of that, by thoroughly controlling the temperature with state-of-the-art equipment and carefully controlling the Mash, we can brew freshly squeezed sake that can only be swallowed in the brewery throughout the year.

POINT03
About
the Water

「Best water for Best sake」We named it ｢Nihon-Izumi」 with the conviction that if we brew it in the underground water of the clear stream Nagara River, which is one of the 100 best water in Japan, especially in the water of the place name (Shimizu Town), we can make sake that we can be proud of in Japan.

POINT04
Pressing by Kifune

Fune is a traditional device for pressing mash.
Recently, there are various machines that put the effect first, but Nihon-Izumi press with a traditional wooden tank.(Kifune)
Since it is squeezed slowly over time, it becomes a mellow sake with little unpleasant taste.
