Founded in 1878.
The city of Niihama has developed as an industrial city, with the Besshi Copper Mine, which laid the foundation for the Sumitomo Group, boasting the world's largest copper production at its peak.
Along with the neighboring city of Saijo, Niihama is an area where underground water has been gushing forth since ancient times. Until the 1970s, there were apparently six sake breweries in the area, but with the changing times, there was no end to the number of breweries that went out of business, and today there is only one, Kondo Shuzo.
However, the only sake brewery in Niihama became a wholesaler in the latter half of the 1960s when demand declined. There was a time when sake brewing was outsourced.
After graduating from Tokyo University of Agriculture, the fifth generation decided to make sake on his own again, and overcame the opposition of others to revive the brewery as the head brewer.
It is impressive for its clean, elegant sweetness and light acidity.
You might think it would just go away, but it has a modest bitterness and a solid richness that lingers on the palate.
I look forward to warming it up💕.
