Kusumi Shuzo is a legendary brewery located in Nagaoka City, Niigata, that has carved its name in the history of sake. The passionate story of resurrecting the miraculous sake rice 'Kamenoo,' which was popular in the Meiji era but had become extinct, from just a few grains of seed rice is also known for being the model for the manga 'Natsuko no Sake.'
The essence of this brewery is deep affection for the resurrected 'Kamenoo' and a thorough commitment to Junmai brewing, utilizing clear spring water from the back mountain. Their sincere brewing that maximizes the blessings of nature has received phenomenal evaluations both domestically and internationally, such as obtaining the highest score in sake history (98 Parker Points) from a global wine critic.
Representative brands such as 'Kame no O' and 'Kiyoizumi' possess both delicate beauty and overwhelming dignity. While honoring tradition, Kusumi Shuzo's sake, which always pursues emotion, exceeds being just a beverage and continues to fascinate enthusiasts worldwide as an artwork embodying Japanese aesthetics and inquiring mind.
