Special Note,
Address: Toyama Prefecture, Tonami City
The landscape of scattered villages unfolds across the vast plains of Tonami City, Toyama Prefecture.
Here, where nature abounds, Wakatsuru Brewery's sake is born –
in summer, refreshing breezes sway the rice ears; in winter, the land is enveloped in a silver world.
The brewing water, the very lifeblood of sake production, is the underground water of the Shō River, slowly and meticulously refined by the earth over long ages.
The Tonami Plain, blessed with mineral-rich spring water and fertile soil, has long been renowned as the birthplace of fine sake.
