Description
Our family-run brewery has survived against the fierce currents of time and change since 1856. Embodying this spirit, we persist in our commitment to producing exceptional sakes, created from local ingredients. Pioneered by several generations, each Akashi-Tai sake is a reflection of the Yonezawa family’s undying love for their profession. In 2005, the company began exporting sake to new markets, specializing in the local market in the U.K. It later expanded to France and the rest of Europe, and began exporting to high-end department stores in London and starred restaurants around the world. Since then, we have expanded our market to France and the rest of Europe, and have supplied many restaurants and bars, including high-end department stores in London, starred restaurants, and round-the-world cruise ships.
