Founded in 1895, Joyo Shuzo is the only brewery located in the Yamashiro region south of Kyoto.
This region has been famous since antiquity for its ume plum trees as well as for the high quality of its very soft underground spring water suitable for brewing activities.
The Joyo Shuzo house sources rice from local terroirs: Kyoto Iwai, Yamada Nishiki from Hyogo…
The Toji (master brewer) produces aged in bottle, raw in the bottle, unfiltered, with a fresh umami and lively acidity.
