[New release] From Dejima!The brewery gallery “Dejima Hosendo” will start selling Dejima-made doburoku “Hosen” for a limited time from May 5th (Saturday)!

“Dejima Hosendo” opened on March 2023, 3 in Dejima-cho, Nagasaki City

This is an urban brewery specializing in "Doburoku" with the philosophy of "passing on the beautiful Japanese culture to the next generation from Dejima, the world-famous city of fans."There is also a gallery and a counter bar that mainly sells sake vessels made by artists, and it plans, produces, and disseminates Japanese food culture as a whole.

What is “Dejima Hosendo”?

``Dejima Hosendo'' was founded in June 2021, at the same time as Mr. Hinata, the representative, became the brewmaster of ``Kihanano Brewery'', an urban brewery in Asakusa, Tokyo.As the head brewer, he brews using other companies' equipment and independently plans events that combine sake experiences with cooking, sake ware, and traditional performing arts, as he works to express and disseminate sake as a pillar of Japanese culture in a multifaceted manner. We decided to open a physical store because we wanted to create a space where we could convey the essence of sake and express its appeal.

The inside of the store is a special space where you can fully enjoy Japanese sake culture.The Doburoku Brewery focuses on brewing the original style of Japanese sake, ``Doburoku'', as well as Doburoku brewed in-house, as well as carefully selected local sake from all over the country. There is also the ``Sake Bar,'' where you can enjoy sake, and the ``Utsuwa Gallery,'' which offers ceramics to enrich your sake and meals.

About “Hosen”

[Comment from brewer Hayato Hinata]

The standard product ``Hosen'' aims to deepen the unknown charm of Doburoku, and within the framework of old-style Doburoku, which is basically brewed only with rice, we are trying to find ways to ``harmonize with the modern table scene as an accompaniment alcohol.'' We are pursuing "Can we do it?"

In conclusion, in today's over-sophisticated table scene, Doburoku has the impression that it is an alcoholic drink that tends to be divided into two, with some people saying it promotes unfashionable taste, while others think it's innovative. Masu.In reality, there aren't that many brewers, and the quality is a mixed bag, so as a result of the lack of accurate information and the fact that its appeal hasn't expanded or deepened, it seems like sake has been relegated to the back seat of country sake. is hard to deny.

However, I am convinced that Doburoku is one of the world's brewed alcoholic beverages that Japan is proud of and has great potential.Is there anything other than Doburoku, a rare alcoholic beverage that stands between the classical and modern, creating a primitive and avant-garde character with the richness and vividness of information provided through the five senses?

If you were to brew Doburoku as a brewer, what kind of Doburoku would be best?Brewed in the land of Dejima, Nagasaki, what kind of appearance would be suitable for it to be called local sake?We hope you enjoy this work, which will be the first answer to that question.
