Sawa no Tsuru Sawa no Tsuru Nada Ward, Kobe City

Enjoy our delicious Junmai sake, which seems readily available but is surprisingly hard to find. In 2017, Sawanotsuru celebrated its 300th anniversary. As a brewery in Nada, a renowned sake-producing region, we are sold nationwide, but Sawanotsuru's sake is "obtainable yet surprisingly hard to find." This is because we have continued to preserve traditional brewing methods using high-quality ingredients, without pursuing volume or low prices. Using the traditional method of brewing with only rice, koji, and water, Sawanotsuru has continued to develop new technologies and products, such as solving a long-standing challenge in the sake industry of lowering the alcohol content to 10.5% while preserving the inherent flavor of Junmai sake. Our unique approach has earned us recognition as a "different brewery" among the sake brewing industry, retailers, and restaurants. We look forward to cherishing opportunities to directly share the appeal of Sawanotsuru's sake, crafted with sincerity and optimism. We will continue to cherish the Japanese sake culture, which is attracting attention from around the world as a "new type of alcohol," and to make sake that will make your daily meals even more delicious. Please look forward to what Sawanotsuru has to offer in the future.
