We will guide you around a total of 45 minutes, which includes a brewery tour (about 30 minutes) and sake tasting (15 minutes). At our brewery, you can learn about the sake brewing process and see the traditional architecture and tools.
In 1618 a road was being constructed between the Yoshioka and Nanakita post stations along the Oshu Kaido highway. At this time Oribe Uchigasaki, ancestor of the Uchigasaki family, helped to establish Tomiya as a post town by the order of Sendai’ s founder Date Masamune. Our sake brewery’s operations were started by the second master of our family, Sakuemon Uchigasaki, in 1661. Since then, Uchigasaki has been brewing sake for over 360 years. We are proud to have the longest history of all breweries in Miyagi Prefecture. We brew traditional handmade sake with a focus on freshness and taste.
