Kaetsu

Kaetsu, with roots dating back to 1865, has a unique history as a company established in 1961 through the collaboration of four breweries in Komatsu City. Leveraging the abundant underground water from the sacred Mount Hakusan and the fertile terroir of Komatsu—a major production area for Gohyakumangoku rice—the brewery pursues refined sake characterized by pure flavors without off-notes and naturally subtle aromas.
They pride themselves on their exceptional technical expertise, having won 12 gold medals at the National New Sake Awards. Their flagship brand, 'Kaga no Tsuki' (The Moon of Kaga), is developed under a poetic concept of expressing the waxing and waning of the moon reflected on water through the flavors of sake. The determination of the local brewers to unite and aim for the 'Summit of Sake' (the pinnacle) that supports Komatsu's rich culinary culture continues to be passed down as the brewery's pride today.
