Matsumoto Shuzo
Matsumoto Sake Brewery is located in Fushimi Ward, Kyoto, a district known for its many sake breweries on account of the purity of its ground water.
With its brick chimneys, Taisho-era timber brewery, and traditional teahouse-style Mangyoin guest house, Matsumoto Sake Brewery preserves the rich culture, history and traditions of Kyoto sake brewing.
Rice
We use only the finest quality Yamada Nishiki rice from Tojo in Hyogo Prefecture and Gohyakumangoku rice from Tonami Plain in Toyama Prefecture. To preserve the integrity of each and every grain, we perform most of the brewing process by hand.
Water
Our brewery is located in Kyoto’s Fushimi Ward, an area renowned since ancient times for the purity of its groundwater. Here, crystalline waters from the Momoyama Hills flow underground and are pumped up to the brewery’s premises to create our distinctive sakes.
