New Yoshinogawa. Released from the brewery on September 11th (Friday)!

 

 

The new Yoshinogawa sake will be released from the brewery on September 11th. It will be available in stores from around September 15th (Tuesday)!

 

Friday, September 11, 2026.

The new Yoshinogawa sake is finally ready to be released from the brewery.

 

May Yoshinogawa continue to be a sake that accompanies you in your daily life and enriches your everyday experiences.

 

"To stay the same, we must change."

Yoshinogawa will change with determination.

 

The "Premium Yoshinogawa Series" has been discontinued.

With this brand refresh, our flagship brand, the "Gokujo Yoshinogawa Series," which has been enjoyed and loved by many for many years, will be discontinued.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who has supported us so far.

 

The essence of Yoshinogawa remains unchanged, while the flavor has been further refined.

We reviewed every single aspect of our process, from labeling and product lines to brewing and storage.
The brewery's environment is designed to allow for sake production whenever needed, throughout the year.
Equipment designed to transport the pressed sake as gently as possible, minimizing the burden on the process.
Then, after pressing, the juice is bottled and carefully stored in a refrigerated environment—a new storage system.
In particular, the refrigerated product warehouse has expanded its storage capacity from approximately 50,000 720ml bottles to approximately 300,000 bottles.
We deliver not only premium alcoholic beverages, but also our main products that you regularly purchase at supermarkets and restaurants, in the best possible condition.

 

The new Yoshinogawa will be released from the brewery on Friday, September 11, 2026.

Sales at each store will begin around September 15th (Tuesday).
