Kiyashou Sake Brewery

Founded in 1818 in Mie prefecture, Kiyashou Sake Brewery is a registered Tangible Cultural Property. It’s located in the fertile Iga Valley, surrounded by mountains that provide optimal temperature conditions for growing high-quality rice. Sixth-generation owner and brewmaster Tadayoshi Onishi reinvented the brewery’s style by launching the Jikon brand in 2005. Its depth, refreshing acidity and fruity aroma enjoy great acclaim, and it’s now one of the most sought-after sake brands. Made in small batches, their products are very difficult to acquire. “Jikon” roughly translates to “carpe diem,” so seize the moment and cherish these rare bottles to the fullest!
