The legendary Masumi Brewery in Nagano is widely considered one of the finest Sake operations in Japan. Founded in 1662 in the town of Suwa, the brewery committed to perfection and extreme attention to detail without giving up tradition. Their famous President Masaru Miyasaka and his prodigy brew master Chisato Kubota became famous for traveling across Japan like Buddhist monks in search of knowledge and truth in Sake production. Indeed, Kubota is responsible for discovering a new and highly prized yeast strain in 1946, forever cementing Masumi Brewery's legacy as one of the most important sake producers in Japan. This is their flagship Junmai Daiginjo and sets a benchmark for the category in terms of complexity and elegance. Nothing, at any price point, delivers more finesse and joy than the wonderful Masumi Nanago.
