NAKAMOTO Nakamoto Sake Brewery is located at the foot of Mount Ikoma, between Nara and Osaka. Its history dates back to the 12th year of Kyoho (1727, Edo Era).
Its aim has always been to produce handcrafted sake that can be consumed at the table, as an accompaniment to food, like a wine. To this end, the sake is made exclusively from pure rice, without the addition of distilled alcohol or antioxidants, and with attention to the quality of the water and rice.
The brewery is committed to using the latest technology while respecting traditional craftsmanship. One of the new technologies used, the most advanced in the world, is a water activator.
By adding energy to the water, micro-organisms such as koji (malted rice) and yeast become more active and the sake becomes even more delicious.
