The Beautiful Taste of Saké Is the Gift of Rice...
Their sake was born nearly one-hundred years ago, in 1918. The founder and landowner, Jiro Iwasaki bore the sake that was far superior to the local plain rice. It has been said that Iwasaki approached sake-making in a playful manner. Sake-making can become very rigorous and at times, unenjoyable. But they strive to keep Iwasaki’s values alive by keeping their playful and enjoyable spirits while making sake. To remain true to their founder, they continue to make their sake seriously, passionately, and diligently.
The brewery is located almost right in the middle of the Osaki Plain. You’ll see it standing quietly, facing the endless countryside landscape which stretches as far as the eye can see. If the word “Miyakanbai” wasn’t written on the wall, you could mistake this brewery for a typical farmer's house. This is the only “Cultivation and Brewing Brewery" in Miyagi that handles everything from the processing of saké rice to saké brewing.
