Hirako Shuzo is a sake brewery located in Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture, just a 9-minute walk from Ishinomaki Station.
 The surrounding area is adorned with beautiful nature and is popular for enjoying local fresh seafood along with its sake.
 Established in 1861 (Bunkyu 1st year), Hirako Shuzo was originally a branch of Kikunosuke Shuzo in Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture.
 The name "Hidakami" comes from an old term referring to the Kitakami River, reflecting the unique character of the sake produced in this region.
Hirako Shuzo primarily offers sake under the "Hidakami" brand, including the specifically named Hidakami and regular sake called Shinseki.
 A particularly recommended choice is the "Hidakami Junmai Cho Karakuchi," a dry junmai sake made from high-grade Hitomebore rice polished to 60%.
 This sake is extremely dry, yet it has a rich flavor and umami, making it enjoyable even as warm sake.
 It pairs excellently with snacks, enhancing its appeal when enjoyed alongside delicious accompaniments.
Additionally, the "Hidakami Daiginjo Nakadori (with wooden box) 1.8L" was awarded first place in the 2019 Miyagi Prefecture Sake Awards.
 It is luxuriously crafted from special A-grade rice harvested in Yoshikawa Town, with a polishing ratio of 40%.
 This sake exudes a rich and floral aroma while showcasing a refreshing texture and aftertaste.
 With an alcohol content of 17-18%, it has a slightly higher ABV, yet it is tailored to a subtly dry finish, earning the support of many customers.
 The sake produced through their craftsmanship is meticulously brewed with attention to detail, ensuring quality that is well-regarded.
 The opportunity to enjoy local snacks that complement the sake makes it an excellent choice for pairing with meals.
At Hirako Shuzo, you can experience authentic sake crafted through Japan's cultural and historical methods.
 We invite you to visit and savor the charm of Japan's delightful sake.
