Shirasou Shuzo is a brewery founded in 1921, located in Nakagawa-machi (formerly Ogawa-machi), Tochigi. Blessed with pure groundwater facing the Nasu mountains, it holds a history of being deeply connected to the local food culture. While preserving traditional sake-brewing techniques, the brewery is well-known for its innovative approach using unique "Flower Yeasts."
A notable initiative is their use of various flower yeasts isolated from nature, such as "Strawberry Yeast"—a nod to Tochigi's status as the strawberry kingdom of Japan—to pursue modern and expressive flavors. In addition to sake, they are highly acclaimed for their authentic Shoshu production, leveraging their sophisticated brewing skills as a rare "versatile brewery" within the prefecture.
Never forgetting its origins as a "local sake" loved by the community, the brewery continues to brew with sincerity and passion in every drop, striving to deliver new experiences to consumers.
