Aso Honten

Aso Honten is a brewery in Shonai-machi, Yufu City, Oita Prefecture, producing both sake and barley shochu.
Amid beautiful water and deep green natural surroundings, they practice brewing that minimizes reliance on machinery and embraces the virtues of handcrafting.
Yufu City is blessed not only with hot spring resources but also abundant water sources, diverse agricultural products, and pristine nature. Aso Honten maximizes this blessed environment in their sake brewing.
The brewery holds a philosophy of brewing in harmony with the regional natural environment while cherishing traditional methods.
Their flagship brands are 'Bungo Fuji' and 'Bungo Ume,' and as these names — referencing Mount Yufu (Bungo Fuji) and Oita Prefecture's official flower — suggest, they continue community-rooted brewing.
