The belief that \"making good sake is more important than profit\" remains the foundation of the brewery today. By successively introducing innovative technologies such as centrifugal separators, automatic koji-making machines, and music-based aging, they continue to refine the quality of their sake with tradition and innovation as their two driving forces.

At Hokusetu Sake Brewery, we believe that sake loved by people is built upon safety and security, and we practice environmentally conscious farming methods that significantly reduce the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers in our rice cultivation. Through these farming methods, we use rice certified by Sado City as \"rice that creates a village where people live with the crested ibis.\" While cherishing the environment of terraced rice paddies where various creatures live, we cultivate Sado-grown sake rice such as \"Koshi Tanrei\" and \"Gohyakumangoku\" together with local contract farmers, achieving a taste and aroma befitting Junmai Daiginjo and Daiginjo sake. In cooperation with the local community, we continue to challenge ourselves to achieve a level of quality that no one else has attempted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e Sado's sake, recognized by celebrities worldwide.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/2937\/6513\/files\/hokusetsu-3.png?v=1753843152\" alt=\"\"\u003e Hokusetu Sake Brewery opened the door to the international stage after encountering \"NOBU,\" a global brand led by Nobuyuki Matsuhisa, a top figure in the Japanese food industry.
