About
Rokka Shuzo produces Joppari, named after the Tsugaru dialect word meaning 'stubborn' — reflecting the tenacious spirit of northern brewers. The brewery uses Hakkoda mountain water and Aomori-grown rice to create clean, crisp sakes suited to the region's cold climate. Their commitment to local ingredients captures the essence of northern Honshu terroir.
