Izumibashi Sake Brewery, founded in 1857 during the Edo period, is located in Ebina (Kanagawa), in the fertile alluvial plains along the Sagami River. This location provides not only ideal conditions for rice cultivation but also access to mineral-rich ground water from the Tanzawa Mountains. Since 2016, Izumibashi has been known as a “cultivation brewery®,” this means that every step—from growing and polishing the sake rice to brewing—is carried out in-house.
