Bunbuku Shuzo, located in Tatebayashi City, Gunma Prefecture, was founded by Tomokichi Kezuka in the historic Motokoya district.
The brand name "Bunbuku" originates from the famous local legend "Bunbuku Chagama" (The Miraculous Tea Kettle), carrying the auspicious meaning of "sharing good fortune."
The brewery's main shop is preserved as the "Kezuka Memorial Hall" and is designated as a Registered Tangible Cultural Property of Japan.
While maintaining traditional handmade techniques such as hand-washing the rice, the brewery uses naturally grown rice through contract farming and local Tatebayashi-grown sake rice like "Maikaze" and "Yamada Nishiki."
Their sake is highly regarded for its rich yet crisp profile, designed as a versatile food-pairing sake that complements various cuisines.
