Showcasing sake to foreigners is increasingly important.
Nanbu Bijin Co., Ltd (President: Kosuke Kuji), in Nihohe, Iwate Prefecture,has been making sake for over five generations since the Meiji Period with a spirit to discover new things.
On January 25th, 2019, we successfully acquired vegan certification both domestically and internationally (Japan: NPO Vege Project Japan, Overseas: The Vegan Society), following our acquisition of kosher certification in 2013. All of our overseas exports now carry vegan certification, and we can provide the world’s first vegan-certified Japanese sake worldwide.
