Established in 1688, Fukuda Brewery is one of the few sake breweries to inhabit Japan’s westernmost prefecture of Nagasaki. One of the first open ports in Japan, Hirado City, Nagasaki saw an influx of Dutch and Portuguese traders in the 16th century which naturally intertwined with the culture of Fukuda Brewery, leading to sakes that constantly take top prize in global sake challenges.
Fukuda is reborn as Fukuumi. This flagship sake of Fukuumi brand opens with a gentle freshness and subtle effervescence. Soft umami from Yamada Nishiki rice anchors the mid-palate, while a touch of minerality reflects its ocean-inspired origins. Delicate acidity gives this sake a crisp, lifted profile, leading to a smooth, dry finish that lingers with elegance. Light Ginjo aromatics and a refined texture make it highly versatile — ideal as a companion to seafood, light fare, or as a refreshing sipper on its own. Balanced, graceful, and quietly expressive, this is a sake that brings the sea to your glass.
