About the brewery
Shuho, a brewery in a traditional residential area, is a brewery that keeps taking risks. They use a variety of rice from all over the country, and also they use various kinds of yeast. The products are all good, though they are different. That is made possible by the CEO of the brewery, Hidekazu Takeda. Rarely enough for the CEO of a sake brewery, he has a doctor’s degree from one of the most prominent universities in Japan. Having worked for a technology company as an engineer, he does not stick to the common sense of the sake industry.
