STORY

The Story of 藤平酒造

Founded in 1888 in Kururi, Kimitsu, Chiba, this brewery is now run by three brothers who carry on generations of sake-making. It uses Kururi's noted natural spring water alongside rice sourced from across Japan, including Hyogo-grown Yamada Nishiki and Hokkaido's Suisei, to brew its Fukuiwai label. The house follows a maxim for rice polishing: "begin with washing, end with washing."
