About the brewery : Hayashi Honten is located on the southern edge of Gifu Prefecture in central Japan. It is run by Eriko Hayashi, who represents the 5th generation of owners of this typically family-run brewery. Hayashi Honten is an interesting brewery in that it brings together, under a single unit, a great mastery of all production techniques, ranging from ancient methods such as Yamahaï, to the most modern and pure Daïginjo, not forgetting aged sakes of the Koshu type. It is this eclecticism that we wanted to illustrate in this selection. The emblem of the revival of the Hayashi Honten brewery since it was taken over by Eriko Hayashi. The label refers to Kumadori, the very special way of putting on make-up in Kabuki theatre.
