Kanbara

Kanbara is a brand respecting the brewery's identity, conveying the original trade name of Kaetsu Shuzo, 'Kanbaraya.' It is a sake that protects the tradition from the era when this area was called Kanbara District, Echigo Province, and shapes a deep attachment to the land of Agano.
Its greatest feature is the taste that suppresses glamour and conveys the original 'strength' and 'flavor' of rice straightforwardly. By using stout sake rice nurtured by the severe climate of local Agano Town and brewing powerfully with traditional methods, it achieves umami that seems to surge from the back of the throat as you drink. The sincere brewing without eccentricity reminds one of the starting point of Japanese sake that never changes even if the times change. It is a brand that stays close to the daily life of Agano Town and continues to support the local flavor, letting one feel the weight of history.
