Brewery

Established in 1928, Heiwa Shuzo (Peace Brewery) is located just outside Kainan City in Wakayama. The site of the brewery was a temple for more than 500 years before the brewery was established. Sake production did not begin until 1957. The brewery is located in a valley surrounded by mountains blessed with abundant rainfall, resulting in a limitless supply of good quality soft spring water, perfect for brewing Sake.

The ‘Tsuru-ume’ range was created to reflect the quality of the many local products available in Wakayama. By working directly with Ume & Yuzu farmers, Heiwa Shuzo is able to secure some of the country's best fruit. Wakayama Ume represents 40% of all Ume grown in Japan and is considered the best Ume fruit source. Citrus fruits such as lemon, yuzu and Mikan are also grown locally and used to make products in the ‘Tsuru-ume’ range.
