About the brewery : Kanna Sakaya began brewing sake in 1942 in Ishigaki. In 1975, it introduced printed bottles for awamori, and in 1981, launched the first vacuum-distilled awamori. In 1992, the company became Seifuku Sake Brewery and won several awards, notably for its “old sake”. In 2001, it adopted direct-fire pot distillation, relaunching its product under the name “Direct-Fire Keifuku”. Over the years, many innovative products, such as “Hitotoki no Chura” (unfiltered awamori), yuzu and ginger liqueurs, and various awamori-based plum wines, have come to market. In 2019 and throughout the Reiwa years, Seifuku continues to distinguish itself, winning several prestigious awards for its creations, including “Seifuku Vintage 43 Degrees”. The company continues to expand with the launch of new products, such as agricultural rum in 2023.
