Echigozakurashuzou

Echigozakura Shuzo, founded in 1890, is a brewery based in Agano City, Niigata Prefecture. Near Lake Hyo, famous as a landing site for swans, and surrounded by beautiful nature, it has been brewing sake reflecting the local Niigata climate for over 130 years.
A major feature is its pursuit of traditional Niigata 'light and dry' style while achieving surprisingly high cost performance. Fusing the latest equipment with the skilled techniques of Echigo brewers, it is brewed with the desire to have many people enjoy high-quality sake. Its representative brand, 'Echigozakura,' reflects the transition from winter to spring in the snow country of Niigata, characterized by a refreshing and clear taste and a gorgeous aroma. It also actively develops products in cooperation with local Agano City specialties and tourist spots. As a brewery walking with the region, it continues to transmit the charm of Niigata's sake culture domestically and internationally.
