About The Brewery
Yucho Brewing Company (油長酒造)
Established in 1719 in Gose, Nara—the historic birthplace of Japanese sake—Yucho Shuzo is a visionary brewery that has redefined modern sake through its world-renowned brand, "Kaze no Mori." Under the leadership of 13th-generation head Yoshihiko Yamamoto, the brewery focuses exclusively on "Junmai, Muroka, Nama Genshu" (unfiltered, unpasteurized pure rice sake). By utilizing proprietary brewing and bottling technologies, they preserve the natural micro-bubbles of carbon dioxide from fermentation, delivering an incredibly vibrant and "living" texture. Kaze no Mori is celebrated for its rich, succulent Umami balanced by a refreshing acidity and an elegant, effervescent mouthfeel. Yucho Shuzo masterfully bridges Nara’s thousand-year brewing heritage with cutting-edge innovation, setting the gold standard for fresh, artisanal sake.
