Brand
Tosashiragiku

Ever since its founding, our brewery remains a leading sake brand. Our comprehensive range offers an enticing selection of classic and seasonal quality sakes.

To add to your dining enjoyment, we created a special sake brand "Shira-giku (white chrysanthemum)". This is named after "Kiku (the chrysanthemum)" of Kiku-taro Sento, the name of our first-generation brewer.
The brand has evolved over time, and now our sake is distributed as "Tosa Shiragiku (white chrysanthemum of Kochi)" within Japan and in overseas markets.
To help you fully enjoy the seasonal dishes, we happily offer a large selection of special seasonal sake types.

Mishio

This new brand was launched in 2014. It is a Junmai Ginjo (pure rice ginjo) series of sake designed with an elegant, honey-like sweetness.

Listen carefully and you will hear the sound of the waves of the Kuroshio Current. Exquisite sake crafted amid natural beauty.

"Making ", "preparing", or "brewing" sake. Such expressions are used by sake brewers, but I believe that "nurturing" best describes our approach.
Just like nurturing a child, the bond between the brewer and his sake should be close, each resonating with the other, and mutually enriching.
That's what we sought – and brought into – our new sake brand, "Mishio (beautiful current)".

Master Brewer: Ryota Sento

Sake brewed using deep sea water

Launched in 1995 as a world-first, Ginjo sake was brewed using the deep sea water (DSW) off Muroto.

The DSW that rises up off the Muroto Cape

DSW refers to the sea water aged by slowly circulating in the deep ocean, far from the reach of any sunlight. This slow current takes some 2,000 years to circulate around the world. 
Compared with surface or inland water, its much superior cleansing characteristics are because it is less contaminated with chemicals, bacteria, etc., and also its having an excellent balance of natural trace elements and abundant minerals.
Using DSW, instead of normal water, to prepare sake has been shown to boost yeast fermentation activity at a genetic level, resulting in improved bouquet and superior taste.

Shochu and Liqueurs

We also manufacture rice shochu, chestnut shochu and liqueurs featuring the full flavor of gently-extracted ingredients.
