The Ota family has a long history in the Shiga prefecture, going back to the early 1600âs when they were relocated by the reigning feudal power at the time to protect the Tokaido high road. Their sake brewery was founded in 1847 and has been built on the idea of local production and local consumption. Named after their famous Samurai warrior, poet, and eventual monk ancestor Dokan Ota, the sakes of Ota Shuzo are made with organic rice from their own farm in Kusatsu City (they also organically farm grapes and produce wine at their own winery, Ritto).
