“Tanabe Sake Brewery” stands in Eiheiji-cho, Fukui Prefecture, a clear stream town where sake brewing is popular.
Since our founding in 32, we have continued to take on new challenges while preserving tradition. By steaming the rice for sake using the traditional method using old-fashioned Japanese pots and squeezing all the rice in a tank, the sake brewing tradition is one that spares no effort.

Tanabe Sake Brewery

1. Drink small amounts of alcohol carefully and carefully.

Steam suddenly rises from the wagama, which is set up in the center of the storehouse.
Tanabe Sake Brewery's method is to use old tools to make sake in a traditional way.
Tanabe Sake Brewery's style of sake brewing is to manually steam rice in a Japanese pot and press the rice in a tank, even though it takes time and effort. Because Japanese pots can produce steam at a higher temperature than boilers, they are said to be able to produce the ideal steamed rice that is ``hard on the outside and soft on the inside.''

First, we carefully craft a small amount of sake that will please the locals. The brewery only brews sake with a specific name of ``Honjozo'' or higher, and has a strict policy of not producing more than 5 bottles of Daiginjo in a small tank. All the moromi from their representative brand ``Echizen Misaki'' is fermented at a low temperature for about a month, and they take a lot of time and effort to create the highest quality sake.

 2. Sake with a good aftertaste that goes well with meals created through cold brewing

It is said that the sake brewed using the cold brewing method has a beautiful taste and allows you to fully experience the characteristics and flavor of the rice. It also cuts well and goes well with meals, so it goes particularly well with Fukui's fresh seafood.

Although the base is traditional, they also offer alcoholic beverages tailored to the tastes of modern people.
Junmaishu and other sake are made to have a relatively acidic taste, and in the past they didn't really produce acid, but they are conscious of making sake that has just the right amount of acidity so that it can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. There is.

3 A sake brewery where people can gather with a corner-uchi space

With the Hokuriku Shinkansen extending to Tsuruga in March 2024, an increase in tourists is expected here in Eiheiji Town.
Tanabe Sake Brewery is also actively working to create a space so that more people can learn about the brewery.
A corner-uchi space will be set up inside the brewery shop, with the aim of opening around May. The theme is a sake brewery where people gather, and the idea is for locals and tourists to drink together and hold events together.
