Sawada Shuzo

Founded in 1844, Sawada Shuzo is located along Ise Bay in Tokoname, the home of Tokoname-yaki pottery on the Chita Peninsula.
The brewery honestly protects the good old-fashioned brewing culture.
They make "handcrafted" brewing their creed, sparing no time and effort using traditional tools that are now rare, such as Wagama (Japanese cauldrons), Koshiki (wooden steamers), and Kojibuta (koji trays).
Their flagship brand "Hakurou" is characterized by a rich and flavorful taste that pairs well with the region's concentrated miso and tamari soy sauce culture.
In the severe winter season when cold winds blow from Ise Bay, this drop, infused with the passion of the brewers, is cherished as Chita's delicious sake, symbolizing longevity and solid technique.
