While producing a TV program about sake for NHK, two sake industry outsiders bonded over a desire to take their love of sake further and brew themselves. With toji Yamamoto Katsuaki on board, they just had to find a shuttered or dormant brewery to set up, as its difficult to obtain a new brewing license. The original Koueigiku Shuzo closed in 2006, and the name was kept to express a sense of revival for the local community.

Yamamoto trained under Nanbu and Noto toji, and was known at his previous brewery for brewing sake with bold flavor and crisp acidity. As toji at Koueigiku however, his goal is to produce bright, spritzy, quaffable sake that appeals to a younger generation of drinkers.
