Koedo Kagamiyama Shuzo

Koedo Kagamiyama Shuzo was founded in 2007 in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture, known for its warehouse district, driven by strong local passion to "revive the traditional brand." Inheriting the name of the legendary brewery "Kagamiyama," which closed in 2000 after being loved for nearly 130 years since 1875, it once again sends Kawagoe's pride to the world.
The greatest commitment is "local production for local consumption" brewing reflecting the terroir of Koedo Kawagoe. Using Kawagoe-grown sake rice and clear groundwater from the Arakawa river system, it is brewed with soul in each batch using traditional Nambu school techniques that require craftsman's intuition and experience. Particularly, the mellow flavor that maximizes rice sweetness and rich umami has earned high evaluation since immediately after its revival, giving a striking impression to modern culinary scenes.
The flagship brand "Kagamiyama" features a dignified and deep flavor suitable for its prestigious name. Additionally, it develops brands loved by tourists such as "Toki no Kane" (Bell of Time) depicting Kawagoe's symbol, continuing to transmit Koedo's history and culture through sake. Credited with inheriting tradition and creating anew, it is a passionate prestigious brewery walking together with the town of Kawagoe.
