Traditional Crafts/Sake Breweries

Urazato Brewery was founded in 1877. By removing as much of the fat and protein from rice in the brewing process, Urazato produces ultra-high quality sake. Urazato aims to make sake that pairs well with meals while being a local institution. The sake is sold throughout Ibaraki, particularly in the brewery's hometown of Tsukuba City.
