"Aya Komachi" is the representative Junmai brand of Wakamiya Shuzo, bearing the names of Ayabe's history as a silk capital and flexible beauty. The umami of rice nurtured by Ayabe's fertile land is carefully drawn out with the Miyamizu of the historical Wakamiya Shrine, featuring the gentle sweetness of rice and a refreshing finish that disappears quickly.

Please enjoy a drop overflowing with transparency, born from deep love for Ayabe.

"Ikekumo" is the brand symbolizing Ikeda Shuzo, named after the pond-like clouds floating in Maizuru's sky and the scene of the Yura River flowing near the brewery. Finished with local ingredients of Maizuru-produced rice and Yura River's underflow water through Junmai brewing without any additives, it is characterized by a deep taste woven by the strong umami of rice and flexible acidity. While having a sharp finish that stays close to fish dishes unique to the sea town, the mellow aroma spreading over time represents Maizuru's rich nature itself. It is a cup where one feels the soul of Sea Kyoto, Maizuru, filled with the passion of the revived brewery.

"Hakurei" is the flagship brand named after the dignified appearance of the famous peak "Mt. Yuragatake (Tango Fuji)" in Miyazu Yura when dressed in winter snow. The taste produced by the underflow water of ultra-soft water reminiscent of perennial snow is surprisingly smooth and transparent, and the pure sweetness inherent in rice spreads gently. While having a sharpened freshness like the air of a quiet winter morning, it has a deep capacity that harmonizes beautifully with Tango's seafood. Brewed with respect to the mountains that have watched over the land of Yura and the rich sea over more than 190 years of history, it is a famous sake that can indeed be called "Tango's Pride."

"Ine Mankai" is a major brand of Mukai Shuzo that overturned the concept of sake with its vivid red color and sweet and sour fruit-like taste using ancient rice (red rice). Brewed with red rice from Ine Town and the rich sensibility of female Toji Kuniko Mukai, this sake has a beautiful hue reminiscent of rosé wine and a charming fusion of acidity and sweetness that is hard to believe comes from rice. Proposing free and modern styles such as on-the-rocks, soda mix, or topping on vanilla ice cream, it is highly acclaimed by celebrities worldwide. It is a monument of modern sake where tradition and innovation met in a miraculous balance, as if the charm of Ine is blooming in full glory.
