Masuda Tokubee Shoten, founded in 1657 in Fushimi, is a brewery boasting an "innovative tradition" that has always opened up new possibilities for sake throughout its history of over 340 years.
Established its position as a pioneer of Nigori-zake (cloudy sake) by commercializing Japan's first Nigori-zake in 1964 by the 14th generation.
Furthermore, it plays a pioneering role in the field of aged sake (Koshu), having started aging Junmai Daiginjo in ceramic jars in 1965 and holding aged sake for up to 60 years.
With a thorough commitment to ingredients, such as working on organic cultivation of sake rice with local farmers for over 35 years, it continues to create unique sake where tradition and modern sense resonate in the polar categories of Nigori-zake and aged sake.
