Unique Brewing Technique

Our sake and rice shochu are made using the exact same ingredient and exact same method, up until the distillation of the rice shochu. This is the secret to making two different alcohol at the same time in our small brewery.

Our Commitment to Sake

Drip separation uses only gravity to separate the sake from the mash, without applying any external pressure. It takes time and effort, but it produces the finest sake with the purest flavor. With the cold winter, it is possible to maintain the high quality of the sake and ship them overseas. Enjoy this seasonal luxury that is only available at this time of year.

Our Commitment to Rice Shochu

Only by using a small distiller with vacuum technology, Snow Dragon’s Shochu is distilled at a low temperature of 30 degrees with low pressure. The resulting rich shochu is full of aroma and without any impure flavor.
