About The Brewery
Ono Shuzoten (小野酒造店)
Located in Tatsuno-machi, Nagano Prefecture, Ono Shuzo-ten has been dedicated to the art of brewing since 1864. Their flagship brand, "Yoakemae" (Before the Dawn), takes its name from the masterpiece of the renowned Meiji-era novelist Shimazaki Toson. This name embodies a spirit of relentless pursuit for authenticity and a commitment to conveying sincerity through the finest flavors.
The brewery maintains a meticulous standard of craftsmanship across its diverse range, from everyday sake to premium Junmai Daiginjo. While their sake crafted from Hyogo Prefecture’s Special Grade Yamada Nishiki represents the pinnacle of quality, they also masterfully showcase the local terroir of Nagano through varieties such as Miyama Nishiki, Kinmon Nishiki, and Sankei Nishiki.
