Inheriting the traditions of Tsushima,
evolving sake brewing
The history of Tsurumi Syuzoubegan in 1873 when Sadazo I, a dyer, started a sake brewing business.
Inheriting the traditional methods of sake brewing from the Tsushima region, we are working to develop better sake that is rich and full of the flavor of rice,
by skillfully blending the advantages of handmade production with modern quality control.
