This prestigious brewery was founded in 1832, but was given the name Tatenokawa (in English, Castle Brook) by the daimyo Sakai Tadakatsu in 1855. As one of the few breweries dedicated to solely producing junmai daiginjo sake, their current vision is to create sake for modern times by pushing the envelope in rice polishing and forging international relationships. In pursuing these goals, Tatenokawa has achieved a 1% RPR, and has collaborated with renowned musical artists such as Foo Fighters and Phoenix. The brewery continues to impress on the global stage, consistently earning top awards in sake competitions around the world.
