Ishikawa Tamajiman Junmai Namagenshu Arabashiri

Ishikawa's Tamajiman Junmai Namagenshu Arabashiri (多満自慢 純米生原酒 あらばしり) is a shinshu (新酒), a new sake produced in November or December that has not matured and therefore has a bold and wild character. It is made of domestic rice polished to 60%. Arabashiri refers to the first 30% of the freshly pressed sake bottled. Tamajiman Junmai Namagenshu is a namazake with a fruity aroma and a youthful taste characteristic of shinshu.

The Ishikawa Brewery is located in Fussa, in western Tokyo, near the banks of the Tama River. It was founded in 1863 and moved its production to Kumagawa, Fussa, in 1881. Ishikawa prides itself on the delicate texture and sharpness of its sake. The brewery is a tourist attraction in Fussa, with a museum, two 400-year-old zelkova trees and a white-walled storehouse of historical value. In addition to sake, the brewery also has a brewery restaurant, Fussa Beer Hut, where visitors can enjoy Tama no Megumi microbrewery, which resumed production in early summer 1998 for the first time in 111 years, as well as Zogura Omusubi, where you can taste sake and microbrewery beer.

Ishikawa Brewery offers guided tours in Japanese and English. Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, these tours have been temporarily suspended.
