The "Yukino Matsushima KAI" series is a brand named after our toji, Sekiya Kaishi.
In his second year as toji (master brewer), at the young age of 31 (at the time of the award), Sekiya was awarded the first place Gold Prize in the Junmai-shu category at the "SAKE COMPETITION 2023" and was also selected for the "Diners Club Young Brewer's Encouragement Award," a special prize established to support the next generation of brewers and awarded to the top-ranking breweries under 40 years old. Sekiya was also selected for the "Diners Club Young Scientist Encouragement Award".
Sekiya's father and grandfather both worked in the sake industry. He took over from his predecessor, Masatoshi Sasaki (now at Sasanogawa Sake Brewery), and won the award for a brand he took on as a challenge.
