Cultivated techniques and handmade methods – sake with a focus on quality
Hirata Sake Brewery began manufacturing and selling bintsuke oil and candles under the name “Hirataya” in 1769, and began sake brewing in 1895. Located quietly in the old townscape of Hida Takayama, the brewery carefully selects high-quality locally grown sake rice in its blessed environment and climate, and strives to put “quality first” when brewing sake. Based on the concept that “sake is something that is cultivated rather than manufactured,” the sake brewed using traditional handmade methods is elegant in terms of taste, body, and aroma, and is finished with a flavor that can be enjoyed not only by locals but also by sake aficionados alike. This brewery is committed to brewing “delicious sake” in small batches, carefully and thoroughly.
