History

The Obama Sake Company is a relatively new Japanese sake brewery, established in 2016 by inheriting the business from the Wakasa Fuji Sake Company. 

The roots of the Wakasa Fuji Sake Company go back to the mid-19th century when there were two breweries: the Yoshioka Sake Company in Obama and the Henmi Sake Company in Kumagawa. After a merger in 1965, there became only one sake producer in the Obama area, the Wakasa Fuji Sake Company. 

With the hope of bringing a new wind to the drastically changing Japanese sake industry as well as contributing to regional development centered on the sake brewery, the descendants of the Yoshioka Sake Company took the lead in establishing the Obama Sake Company.

While we may be a new brewery, we are moving forward step by step with the goal of improving our sake quality and customer satisfaction. We humbly ask for your support and encouragement.
