Matsutaro Fukumitsu
Delaware, New Jersey, and New York
Fukumitsuya was founded in 1625 near Mount Haku. The rainfall on these mountains soaks into the ground and flows into an underground spring that is used by Fukumitsuya in brewing. The brewers use this water in combination with just rice and microorganisms to produce only junmai sake, out of respect for the origins of sake brewing. T he brewery is currently owned and operated by the 13th generation of the Fukumitsu family. The brewery is located in Kanazawa (Ishikawa Prefecture).
