Kamikawa Taisetsu Sake Brewery "Ryokkyu-gura"
Savor Handcrafted Hokkaido Sake Amid the Majestic Peaks of Daisetsuzan
This brewery was born as a symbol of regional revitalization, using carefully selected Hokkaido rice and pristine natural spring water from the Daisetsuzan mountain range. Here, the traditional art of handmade brewing breathes life into the unique terroir of the region.
Established in 2017, "Ryokkyu-gura" is nestled at the foot of Daisetsuzan National Park. The team relocated about 1,500 kilometers from Mie Prefecture to Kamikawa Town specifically to find the perfect environment for brewing. Outside, the majestic Daisetsuzan peaks stretch across the horizon. Inside, the gentle murmur of mountain spring water and the aroma of steamed rice fill the air, where skilled artisans handcraft sake that captures the purity and deep umami of the land.
Visitors can observe the dedicated brewing process through outdoor viewing windows. To support the local community, this sake is not widely distributed; priority is given to sales within Kamikawa Town. This reflects a heartfelt wish for travelers to "enjoy the sake in the very place it was made." The result is a sake with a soft mouthfeel and a crisp finish. A special experience awaits you in Kamikawa, where you can savor local flavors alongside nearby restaurants and relaxing hot springs.
