Imayo Tsukasa Sake Brewery

For foreign customers : You can enjoy tax-free shopping in our shop from June 1, 2018! Imayo Tsukasa started as an inn and sake shop. From the late Edo period to the early Meiji era, Niigata was said to have a higher population than Edo. Since the middle of the Meiji era Imayo Tsukasa has been a fully dedicated sake brewery. The Niigata soil was fertile, the Agano water was clean, and we built a facility in Nuttari, a hub for Japanese fermented goods like miso, sake and soy sauce. Wanting to review our brand and reflect on our brewing method, In 2006 Imayo Tsukasa vowed to be an “only-junmai” company. It’s not easy. Because you can’t add anything to adjust taste or alcohol content, you have to take extra special care of the rice in every step of the process. We value the importance of producing nothing but high-level sake, working hard to make only premium sake. These include Junmai Daiginjo, Junmai Ginjo and Junmaishu.

I came here as a last minute stop in Niigata before heading home. I was able to get a tour in English and it was very informative about the sake brewing process and the culture behind it! The tour guide was very friendly and was helpful when I had a question. I unfortunately was driving so I couldn’t sample the sake, but for 1000 yen you can try a variety of the sake they have. I really liked their amazake (non-alcoholic sweet sake). They are also one of the only few dozen breweries in Japan to use wooden barrels when making sake. The gift shop had a lot of sake choices and flavors! I’m totally glad I came here.
