Hanaharu Shuzo

Hanaharu Shuzo, founded in 1718, is a historic brewery with over 300 years of history in Aizu-Wakamatsu City. Located near Tsurugajo Castle, it has long been cherished as the "face of Aizu," supporting the regional sake culture.
In addition to numerous Gold Medals at the National New Sake Awards, they have received top prizes in international competitions, with their quality highly acclaimed worldwide. Not resting on tradition alone, they constantly pursue quality-first brewing. Their true essence lies in a "flavorful slightly dry" sake suitable for pairing with food, achieved by carefully polishing Aizu-grown rice and slowly brewing it at low temperatures to create a clean taste with moderate aroma. They also continue to take on new challenges, such as the brand "Yume no Kanade," which shines with the delicate sensibilities of a female Toji. It is a brewery that brews the very history of Aizu, where the weight of tradition resonates with modern sensibilities.
