Sekaitaka was launched to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Koyama Honke. The steamed rice is prepared with a firm outer layer and a soft core, allowing for good separation and creating an ideal environment for microbial activity. Koyama Honke Brewery began its sake-making journey in 1808 after discovering a high-quality water source which is now the Nishi Ward, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture. Since its founding, the brewery has cherished and preserved the sake brewing techniques it has developed, with a commitment to quality as its motto. Dedicated to meeting a wide range of customer preferences, it offers high-quality and delicious sake at affordable prices. The high-quality sakes are built on traditional skills passed down through generations of Toji (Master brewers), enhanced by the latest technologies while preserving the essence of handcraftsmanship. With forward-thinking investments in advanced facilities and carefully centralised production management, the brewery maintains uncompromising quality and consistently produces outstanding sake.
