The company is headed by Yasunori Sugimoto, who moved to Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture in 2022.
The event, hosted by CIRCULATION DESIGN STUDIO LLC, will be held on August 8th.
For the first episode, we will be welcoming Mr. Shuhei Okazumi, representative of Rice and Agave Co., Ltd. from the Oga Peninsula in Akita Prefecture, to hear about his activities related to "Japanese Salmon and Urban Development"!

Ine to Agave Co., Ltd. started out by brewing sake using naturally grown rice in Akita Prefecture, with the concept of "polishing the technique, not the rice." After that, the brewery they established has launched various businesses centered on a new genre of sake called "craft sake," and one of their goals is to create jobs in the region and nurture the talent that will lead the future.

At the event, "Rice and Agave" guest Okazumi Shuhei will talk about his various local initiatives and the vision he has for the future through sake brewing in the Oga Peninsula. There will also be a talk session hosted by Happy Taro, the owner of Happy Taro Brewery in Nagahama, Shiga Prefecture, a brewer and fermentation advisor, about the activities and thoughts behind the brewery.
