Kinmon Akita

Kinmon Akita (Brauerei)

Daisen, Akita

The Kinmon Akita Sake brewery brews according to three basic principles: umami of rice, maturing and blending. It was in 1973 when the brewery as we know it today was founded. However, its history dates back to 1936.

Passing down its knowledge and passion from generation to generation, Kinmon Akita Sake Brewery deepens its engagement with the food tradition in every single product.

‚Thinking of it a step further, sake-making is actually a quest for discovering an unvisited savor which goes beyond the evaluation of sake's taste alone. While carrying on the roots of Japanese sake, we would never stop searching for a break-through to an unknown sphere of savor by aged sake, a kind of sake containing 'umami' that no one else can imitate.’
