Matsumoto Shuzo, founded in 1791 as "Sawaya" in Higashiyama, Kyoto, is a historical brewery that moved to Fushimi in 1922 in search of high-quality groundwater.
The brick chimney and wooden brewery standing by the Higashi Takase River are designated as National Registered Tangible Cultural Properties as a beautiful landscape symbolizing Fushimi.
Under the unwavering belief that "no technique surpasses ingredients," they use carefully selected sake rice such as Yamada Nishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, sticking to sake brewing that maximizes the characteristics of the materials.
While protecting tradition, they incorporate modern sensibilities and continue to pursue the "ultimate food-pairing sake" that enhances the potential of cuisine, making them one of Kyoto's representative prestigious breweries.
