Nakao Jozo is a brewery founded in 1871 that is thoroughly conscientious about yeast.
It is known for "Apple Yeast," which produces a fruity aroma, discovered by the 4th generation owner in 1940 after about 2,000 experimental brews. Thanks to this discovery, they won first place at the National New Sake Appraising and Deliberating Fair three times and were honored as the purveyor of New Year's sake for the Imperial Household.
Under the belief that "sake brewing is not science, but sensibility," they have also developed unique technologies such as the high-temperature saccharification yeast starter method, and continue to brew sake that fuses tradition and innovation.
