IPPONGI SAKE BREWERY

Let me take you to time of Samurai's~

The Feudal Lord Katsuyama ( Ogasawara) gave him the symbolic name "Ippongi"  to the sake brewed exclusively for him. The name ‘Ippongi’ comes from the Zen term 'Daiichigitai', which means ultimate truth.


When Ippongi Sake Brewery was founded in 1902, the company inherited this historical sake name.
Since the beginning, Ippongi has been brewing high-quality dry sake, and within 10 years of its founding, it became the top brand in Fukui prefecture. Ippongi continues to hold the top position to this day, nearly for 100 years.
The taste Ippongi was aiming for was something pure with a beautifully articulated aroma and flavor.
To accomplish this, Ippongi turned to the Nambu brewing method (developed among brew masters from southern Iwate prefecture, which was famous for producing sake with a clean, clear taste). 

The Nambu-toji is one of the three most excellent brew master groups in Japan, along with Echigo-toji and Tamba-toji. Of this esteemed triumvirate, Nambu-toji is widely considered to be the premier group. It has a history of over 350 years, and the skills and craftsmanship of the Nambu brewing method have been praised throughout the history of sake brewing.

"Nara / Miwa" where the god of sake is settledIt is said that Miwa's land originated in sake brewing.
It was here in Miwa that sake was brewed to save the country from ancient times.
Together with the sake god, this Miwa continues to make a deep history.

​The name "Miwa = Miwa" can be said to be a phonetic kana with a deep relationship with sake and Shinto rituals. One of them is "God liquor".
It has been said that, since ancient times, the state of being intoxicated with liquor is in sync with the god, and liquor has been regarded as an important connection with God.
The sacred sake is now called "Miki," but in the old days it was read as "Miwa." In addition, ancient people read God as "Miwa."
The official name of "Ojin Shrine" is "Omiwajinja".
It can be seen that "liquor, Miwa, God" have a deep relationship so that "God sake = Miwa = God".

You’re most likely to reach flow when you’re working on a meaningful task under the right conditions, and finding the flow state is a skill that can be practiced and perfected.
