ABOUT THE BREWERY
Founded in 1880, Kanemitsu Shuzo 金光酒造合資会社 is located in Higashi-Hiroshima City within the Hiroshima Prefecture. In 2003, the head of the brewery, Hideki Kanemitsu, stopped using automated plant equipment and resumed manual production in order to return to hand-made sake with individuality.
Kanemitsu Shuzo uses 100% domestic rice.
Although there are many types of rice used, 80% of the rice used is grown in Hiroshima. The remaining 20% is rice produced in Okayama and Hyogo.
