QUALITY
FACTORY
The brewery of Higashi Sake Brewery is made of stone
Our 12 buildings which includes sake breweries and residential buildings, were registered as a cultural property on January 8, 2009. The design of our sake breweries received great reviews. Three breweries are made of local tuff bricks (Kanagasoishi) and one has a western style, wooden-covered with stained-glass windows. These 4 breweries received especially high evaluation marks because of their rare and wonderful design.
It seems like the tea-ceremony house and the sukiya-zukuri style of building is whispering our sake master's secret message to any visitor who sees it.
The committee members commented that the sake breweries are very small in appearance, but the harmony of breweries and residence makes visitors imagine themselves as ancient prosperous sake brewers.
