Nadagiku Sake Brewery

Nadagiku Sake Brewery Co., Ltd. is a sake brewery founded in 1910 (Meiji 43) and headquartered in Himeji City.
The founder was Mikisaku Kawaishi, and it was established independently from Kawaishi Honke Sake Brewing.
The brand name "Nadagiku" was named by combining "Nada" of Harima Nada spreading in front of Himeji and "Kiku" (chrysanthemum), which is an auspicious flower.
In the premises of 2,700 tsubo, 7 wooden sake breweries from the time of founding are preserved, conveying the atmosphere of traditional breweries to the present.
Female master brewer Misa Kawaishi brews sake by hand with small batch preparation, practicing traditional sake brewing using sake rice such as Yamada Nishiki, Gohyakumangoku, and Hyogo Yumenishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, and groundwater from the Ichikawa water system flowing since its founding.
In 1997 (Heisei 9), a sake brewery restaurant was opened, and it has developed as a tourist-type sake brewery where brewery tours and tastings are also possible.
