　自らが一生活者として、信州の自然に寄り添った酒造りをしています。
　全ての酒造米を地元伊那谷にて契約栽培し、｢土着の蔵｣として信州の風土に根差した味わい豊かな純米醸造酒のみを醸しています。

　信濃錦の酒名は、信濃＝長野県の、錦＝その美しき大自然を意味しており、酒造りを通して信州の大自然を表現することができればと考えています。

　そのため酒造米の全てを農薬を使用しないかその使用を低減した契約栽培米とし、素材の持ち味を明確に表現できる純米醸造酒のみを製造しています。

　また、丁寧に作られた契約栽培米の持ち味を大切にするため、それらを敢えて低精白として仕込み、甘味、酸味、辛味、苦味、渋みという日本酒の五味が豊かに感じられる純米酒造りにも励んでいます。

　商品づくりでは、そのライフサイクル全体に意識を広げ、原料を調達し酒を仕込むまではもとより、副産物である酒粕を契約栽培米の肥料として循環させ、あるいは商品の輸送や瓶のリユース時までを見渡して、エネルギーや各種資源の有効活用に心を配っています。

　どうぞ今宵は、信州の大自然に思いを馳せながら信濃錦をお楽しみください。

　We are a sake brewery which strives to harmonize with the nature of Shinshu (Nagano) region.
　All of our brewing rice is contract grown in the local Ina Valley, and we only brew pure rice sake that is rich in flavor, rooted in the climate and culture of Shinshu as a "locally rooted sake brewery".

　The name "Shinano Nishiki" represents our desire to express the beauty of the great nature in Nagano, which is known as Shinano, through our sake-making.
　Shinano refers to Nagano Prefecture, and Nishiki means beautiful nature.
　By brewing sake, we aim to capture the essence of Nagano's nature and showcase it to the world.

　By using local rice, we can bring out the taste that matches the climate and soil of the region, resulting in a deeper and more satisfying flavor.
　Through contract cultivation, we build long-term relationships of trust with local producers and contribute to the development of the region.
　We are committed to producing pure rice sake only that fully expresses the unique flavors of our locally grown rice, which is contract farmed without the use of pesticides or with reduced pesticide use, in order to be in harmony with the nature of Shinshu.
　As a "locally rooted sake brewery" that is supported by the local community, we will continue to protect the sake culture of Shinshu.

　In order to fully appreciate the distinct characteristics of the carefully cultivated rice, we especially use a low-polishing rate, and strive to create pure rice sake that showcases the five flavors of Japanese sake: sweetness, acidity, dryness, bitterness and astringency.
　As a "locally rooted brewery", we aim to embody the essence of Shinshu's terroir in our sake, using only locally grown rice for our brewing.

　In product development, we focus on the entire lifecycle of our products, including sourcing materials, brewing sake, and considering the effective use of resources such as energy.
　We also take into account the reuse of by-products such as the sake lees, which we recycle as fertilizer for the contracted rice fields.
　We are committed to effective use of resources until the transportation of the products and reuse of bottles, ensuring that we minimize waste and contribute to sustainability efforts.

　Please enjoy ShinnanoNishiki sake while reflecting on the great nature of Shinshu tonight.
