About

Tokyo may seem an unlikely sake region, but the western Tama area retains a quiet brewing tradition fed by pristine water from the Chichibu and Okutama mountains. Several small kura in Ome and Fussa have brewed for centuries, producing refined, elegant sakes that reflect the capital's sophisticated palate and proximity to top rice sources nationwide.
