立山ギンレイ
History of the brewery:
In 1975, the company was the first in the industry to declare that no sugar was added to its products. Daiginjo-shu "Ryu" was the first daiginjo-shu to be made commercially available, which was considered difficult. Subsequently, a series of daiginjo-shu such as "Shizuku," "88," "Ishidaya," and "Nizaemon" were released commercially one after the other.
Origin of the brand name:
The name "Kuroryu" comes from the Kuzuryu River, the largest river in Fukui Prefecture, which flows through Matsuoka Town where the brewery is located.
