Weaving a history spanning three hundred years,
A flavor that continues to evolve even today is,
Born from "koji-making."
For three hundred years since the Edo period, a traditional craft has been passed down in the Yame region.
Even as the nature of food changes with the times,
Shigemasu aspires to be a sake that brings people together around the dinner table.
At the heart of it all is our commitment to koji.
We infuse the craftsmanship that draws out the aroma and umami from a single grain of rice with the passion of our brewers.
Shigemasu remains a sake that connects people and food across the ages.
