  One of Japan's snowiest areas

  Tsunan Town is one of Japan's snowiest areas, with the entire brewery completely buried in snow in winter. In February 2022, a record 4.19m was recorded for the first time in recorded history. Snow exceeding 4m can disrupt daily life. However, this harsh and fertile natural environment has fostered an ideal environment for sake brewing, including Ryugakubo, a renowned spring water source and one of Japan's 100 famous water sources, and the clear, cool underground water produced by the melting snow from Mt. Naeba, one of Japan's 100 famous mountains. Using the prefecture's finest sake rice, "Gohyakumangoku," Naeba Brewery's brewing techniques have been passed down by Echigo master brewers, who pride themselves on their skill and tradition.
