Koedo Kagamiyama Sake Brewery

小江戸鏡山酒造

Introduction

Established in 2007 after the first Kagamiyama sake brewery closed down on 2000. The brewers work around the clock to ensure that the sake matures as thoroughly as if they were raising their own children.

Story

In 1875, KOEDOKAGAMIYAMA CO., LTD., the current  brewery's predecessor, was founded in Shintomicho, Kawagoe City, known as the  "City of Warehouses." However, in September 2000, the brewery  closed its doors, ending its long history, and the sake breweries were gone  from the city. Six years later, in February 2007, in response to passionate  calls from local government and citizens hoping for its revival, Akihiro  Igarashi - brother of the current head of IGARASHI BREWERY (Hanno City) - and  others established KOEDOKAGAMIYAMA CO., LTD. in Nakamachi, Kawagoe  City.    Though the brewery is small, about the size of a tennis court, it is known  for its compact sake brewing process, carried out by a small, innovative  team. They are also strongly committed to local production and consumption,  collaborating with local farmers to cultivate "Sakemusashi," a new  sake rice variety suited for sake brewing. This ensures the use of safe,  fresh, and locally-grown rice.    They also operate two retail outlets: one at the Kawagoe City Industrial  and Tourism Center "Koedo Kurari," which is a renovated builing  from former Kagamiyama Shuzo, and another at "Kawagoe Sake Shop,"  located in the Takishima House, a tangible cultural property built in 1895,  situated along Kawagoe's main tourist street.
