Seto Shuzo was founded in 1865 in Kaisei Town, Kanagawa Prefecture. In 1980 it was forced to close. Fortunately, in 2018, the brewery started sake production.

Kanagawa landscape been marked by rice fields that change over the seasons, the murmur of water and old thatched houses, has raised this question: What would sake produced in this soothing environment taste like? From there, the plan to revive the activity came into action. The brewery was pretty much dormant for the best part of 40 years, however, in the short time since Mori-san and team took over its operations, not only have they been recognized with numerous awards for their sake, but they have created a very focused and strong branding model that looks set to take the brewery into a successful future.
