- Founded in 1804. Located in the center of Fukui City, Fukui Prefecture, Tsuneyama Sake Brewery has weaved its way through history, overcoming the challenges of the Fukui Air Raid and the Great Earthquake. Fukui Prefecture has long been known as "Echiyama Wakamizu" (meaning "mountain and water from the mountains"), and is blessed with a vast natural environment nurtured by the clear waters of Wakasa and the lush green mountains of Echizen. From these bounties, the prefecture is known as a treasure trove of foodstuffs, with an abundance of seafood from the sea and mountains, including Echizen crabs. Echizen is also a land of rich culture, where traditional crafts such as Echizen hammered blades, lacquer ware, and Japanese paper have taken strong root. The brewery's main brand, "Tsuneyama," was established in 1997 by the late seventh generation with the hope that the sake would become well known as an excellent brand. The following three themes are at the heart of the brewing process. One: Use of 100% rice grown in Fukui Prefecture (ii) Contribution to agriculture through collaboration with local communities and contract farmers (iii) Brewing a "light and mellow" junmai sake unique to Tsuneyama. Based on these principles, we aim to connect people to people and culture to the times through sake in the cause of "brewing harmony. We will continue to pursue the unique brewing of sake that reflects the climate and history of Fukui in a cup with a concentrated flavor of rice and a lingering aftertaste.
