Representative Director and President Teruto Kitajima is the 14th generation head of the company. Sake production resumed after the war, and the representative brand Miyosakae was produced by Teruto's grandfather.
As a standard brand, it continues to maintain the taste loved by locals. "Miyo Sakae" has a diverse lineup including daiginjo, sake, and liqueurs, such as "Unfiltered Nama Sake Biwako Kujira," which can be enjoyed on the rocks with a strong taste, and Shiga Prefecture's efforts to combat global warming. You can choose sake that matches your tastes, such as ``Junmai Mizukagami,'' which uses a newly developed edible rice variety, ``Mizukagami,'' and has an attractive pure taste.
On the other hand, in 2002, we took on a new challenge and introduced the sake ``Kitajima'' to the world. It is a brand that is always trying new things, and its biggest feature is the deliciousness when you drink it hot. “Kitajima” uses a manufacturing method called “Kimotozukuri,” which uses nitrate-reducing bacteria and lactic acid bacteria in the air to suppress the proliferation of bacteria and grow yeast, reducing the amount of labor involved. It takes time. In pursuit of the ultimate sake for drinking, the sake has a full-bodied and sharp taste by thoroughly working with yeast.
