Ikeura Shuzo is a brewery with deep cultural history, located in Ryoko, Nagaoka City, Niigata, a place connected to 'Ryokan,' who was a Zen monk and a poet. This area is known as the place where Ryokan spent his later years, and the spirituality and thoughts of Ryokan are strongly reflected in the brewery's sake production.
Upholding the family motto 'Waraku Goson,' meaning 'harmonious enjoyment and mutual respect,' they have pursued a warm harmony between people and people, and people and sake. Their sake, luxuriously using local sake rice such as 'Koshi Tanrei' and brewed with traditional handmade techniques, is characterized by a sophisticated aroma and deep flavor.
They develop brands derived from Ryokan's calligraphy and poems, such as the representative brand 'Tenjo Taifu.' Their high-grade quality, which is not just sake for getting drunk but makes one think of history and culture and calms the mind, is highly evaluated by seasoned drinkers. It is a brewery that makes one feel spiritual richness, created by the quiet climate of Nagaoka.
