Distillery Information

In 1855, Shirataki founder Minatoya Tosuke embarked on sake production using pristine meltwater in the lowlands of Echigo Yuzawa. Lying in the foothills of a mountain range linking Kanto (Tokyo) with the Sea of Japan, the area flourished with inns offering travelers the treat of a natural hot springs and gorgeous 4-season colors. What was once just brewed at Shirataki to heal the fatigue of these countless visitors is now a consistantly enjoyable, award-winning product appreciated globally. We wish to share Echigo Yuzawa’s tranquility with all people and the lives they lead. Through production of fine premium sake, we seek to reflect the voice of our community in humble efforts to nurture and spread knowledge of the sake culture. We at Shirataki Sake Brewery aspire work as hard as our founders and stick to their traditional values, while also maintaining a constant push toward experimentation and innovation. It is our passion to serve you exciting, thoughtful and, most of all, delicious sake.
