TANAKA SHUZO
Brewery: Tanaka Shuzoten Inc.
Founded: 1789
The brewery celebrated its 230th anniversary of crafting the world’s finest sake in 2019, and was renamed Tanaka 1789. For more than two centuries, Tanaka 1789 has been producing hand-crafted sakes elaborated by using ancestral and natural methods, giving a complex, rich and singular character to its award-winning sakes made by the best toji (master brewer) using the highest quality rice. A new chapter in Tanaka’s long story was written in 2018. The brewery had invited François Chartier to collaborate. Later, he was hired as Tanaka’s new Master Blender to work alongside the toji.
