The history of Miyazaki Sake Brewery dates back to 1866. Since then, here in the Kazusa hills, we’ve preserved our natural water sources and inherited the wisdom of our ancestors. From the region called Mine comes our Mine no Sei, while makuake explores new possibilities in sake. We continue our brewing tradition with a spirit that honors the past while embracing innovation.
Sake rice forms the core of sake’s flavor profile, supporting the work of koji mold and yeast as it transforms into rich umami during fermentation. At Miyazaki Sake Brewery, we never compromise on our rice. We use high-quality, large-grain rice grown on our own farms in Chiba and Hokkaido, and mill it ourselves to maximize its potential.
In recent years, alongside traditional sake rice varieties, we’ve actively explored brewing with premium table rice—the kind we eat daily. This allows us to draw out the distinct, natural flavors unique to these varieties as we pursue new possibilities in sake brewing.
Premium sake requires premium water. At Miyazaki Sake Brewery, we use groundwater that springs from the Boso hills. Known as the “Living Waters of Kururi,” this water originates as rainfall in the Kiyosumi-Mitsuishi mountain range, naturally filtered through geological layers. The result is pure, pristine water of exceptional quality.
We create koji by introducing koji mold spores to steamed rice, breaking down the rice’s starch into sugars, alcohol, and acids. Since koji mold thrives at 30-35°C in winter’s dry conditions, we maintain precise humidity control in our koji room.
The aromas and flavors of sake are shaped by microscopic yeast cells. Because yeast is a living organism, we brew daily while monitoring how it responds to temperature, humidity, and the condition of the rice.
At Miyazaki Sake Brewery, we carefully select the ideal yeast strain from many varieties to match our vision for each sake. We maintain precise temperature control and environmental conditions to ensure the yeast thrives and performs at its best. We understand the characteristics of each yeast strain and pay close attention to how it behaves to infuse flavor into the sake. This is how we engage with yeast, and it’s one of the true joys of sake brewing.
