Producer/Brewery ( Saitama Prefecture / Shinkame Brewery (Shinkame, Hikoma) )

This brewery was founded in 1848 and is located in Hasuda City, Saitama Prefecture. In 1987, while the local sake boom was still a local trend, they converted all of their brewing to junmai sake, and are famous for becoming the first brewery to produce only junmai sake since the war. This move further solidified the subsequent trend in the sake industry to emphasize quality.

Their flagship brand, "Kamigame," is named after the "messenger turtle of God" that is said to have lived in the "Tenjin Pond" behind the brewery. "Hikomagoto" means great-grandson, and is given to sake that has been aged for more than three years.
