Kononotomo Sake Brewery
The pleasant drinking experience of Konotomo Sake Brewery's sake is based on the natural blessings of Tajima, Hyogo. In addition to outstanding techniques based on tradition and experience, we create the rich taste and aroma of sake by paying close attention and consideration to the drinker.
The name of the old sake brand, ``Kono no Tomo,'' which is also the name of the company, is said to be taken from a line from the Noh song ``Shōjū,'' ``Zoureshiki that meets friends, Zoureshiki that meets this friend.''
The sake rice used is locally produced Yamada Nishiki and Gohyakumangoku rice, and is steamed in a large koshigaki. The water used for everything from washing the rice to preparing it is groundwater flowing from Mt. Awaga, which rises on the border between Tajima and Tamba. It can be said that Tajima's natural blessings are the basis for the pleasant drinking experience of Konotomo Sake Brewery's sake.
The toji of Tajima is in charge of turning this excellent material into delicious sake. Not only does he have the ability to win the Gold Award for nine consecutive years at the National New Sake Appraisal, but he is also enriched by his outstanding skills based on tradition and experience, as well as his heartfelt attention to detail and attention to detail, with the sake of the drinker in mind. We create the taste and aroma of sake.
In addition to the main brand ``Tajima,'' which offers a variety of sake from regular sake to junmai to daiginjo, there are also ``Aishite to the Bones,'' which goes well with fish dishes, and ``Junmai Ginjo Ya,'' which is targeted at women.
We want you to enjoy the harmonious combination of Tajima's nature and the Tajima toji's techniques.
