Team Tottori was founded back in April 2021 with an aim to export sake to India. In 2021, seven breweries joined the team with full enthusiasm to achieve the objective.
Our love of the regionality has driven us to become a bridge between Tottori and India.
Why India?
Rice is our common language
Because of… rice! We both have country’s name in rice name; Indica and Japonica. So, we believe Indian people could understand the sweetness and umami derived from rice. We would like to introduce sake in India so that Indian people could explore the new alcoholic beverage that is deeply rooted to our culture, tradition and history.
Why Tottori?
Food security and safety is guaranteed!
Our production scale is a relatively small and that’s why we can proudly maintain transparency over the entire product lifecycle from rice planting to sake bottling. Most breweries work in the rice field in summer and brewery in winter. We clearly know who grows the rice, how the rice is grown, how the rice responds to water and who bottles the sake. Food safety and security increasingly becomes concerns to consumers but you can fully enjoy our products.
Our objective
Welcome to Tottori as Food Capital of Japan
We live in harmony with the nature and thus we have a rich food culture thanks to the blessings of the nature. Welcome to sake brewery tour. We guarantee 100% satisfaction with the limpid water, beautiful air and star filled sky.
Our activities
Vegan Certificates acquired on June 30th 2021
Vegan represents those who live only on plant-based products. The ratio of vegetarian people reached 30% in India, the top in the world. We obtained Vegan certificate targeting those vegetarian people by showing respect for their diversity in a visualized format. Vegan people show significant concerns about global environment and sustainability. We consider the certification helps preserve diversity of living organisms including natural environment (woods, water and soil), the origin of sake, and helps materialize “Tottori - living in harmony with natures”. Indeed, harmonious living is essential for Tottori to feature itself that substantially contributes to preventive actions of global warming. Thus our ultimately aim is to be a role model of “social friendly, Tottori.”
