Sekaitaka - Hamafukutsuru

The origin of Hamafukutsuru and its parent company, Koyama Honke Shuzo, was more than 200 years ago in the late-Edo period, when the founder Matabee Koyamaya was born in what is now Harima-cho, Kako-gun, in Hyogo Prefecture, and was later apprenticed as a master brewer in the Nada area.

The passion of Matabee, who had studied in Nada and moved to Saitama, has been passed down from generation to generation, and in 1989 he joined forces with Fukutsuru, the predecessor of Hamafukutsuru, in Nada, which is closely connected with him, to carry on the tradition of sake brewing.
