    Overview


    Matsuzaki Shuzoten is a traditional sake brewery located in Ten'e Village, Iwase County, Fukushima Prefecture, founded in 1892.
     The brewery is situated in a quiet environment, providing a serene atmosphere for visitors.
     The operating hours are from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays (Monday to Friday), with weekends and holidays being closed, so it is advisable to check in advance before visiting.
    The representative brand of this brewery, “Hirotodagawa,” takes its name from the old name of the local river, Shakadō River.
     The brewing water used is mineral-rich well water sourced from underground in Ten'e Village, and the brewing rice is the premium sake rice "Yume no Ka" grown in Fukushima Prefecture.
     Such attention to detail produces sake that emphasizes the original flavor of the rice.
    Notably, the "Hirotodagawa" Junmai Daiginjo is crafted using rice polished down to 40%.
     This results in a fragrant aroma and elegant aftertaste, characterized by a clean drinking experience without any off-flavors.
     Additionally, this Junmai Daiginjo has received high praise from many customers and has won a gold medal in the "Fukushima Prefecture Autumn Competition, Junmai Division.
    "Matsuzaki Shuzoten also offers the popular "Hirotodagawa" Junmai Nigori Namazake at an affordable price.
     This sake requires careful handling upon opening, but once stirred, it turns a milky white color, enhancing its deep sweetness and umami.
     With a fruity profile and a crisp finish, it is perfect for many customers' everyday drinking occasions.
     The diverse lineup and pursuit of quality in "Hirotodagawa" lead to memorable experiences and emotions for many customers.
    I highly recommend visiting Matsuzaki Shuzoten to enjoy its wonderful sake.
