Fujii Shuzo

Fujii was founded in 1863 in Takehara, a region of Hiroshima Prefecture known for its high quality water, ideal for the production of premium sake.

Since its inception, the small company has aimed to uphold tradition by producing only junmai sake with the three essential ingredients, rice, water, and kōji. It is through the traditional Kimoto method that the brewery emphasizes brewing, the starting point in sake making.

The brewery's philosophy is carried by the saying "sake is not the work of man, but the work of nature," revealing all the authenticity of its sakes. Despite its human scale, Fujii Shuzo has created a flagship sake, Ryusei, whose quality was awarded the highest honor at the first national sake competition in 1907.
