Ohkura Honke, founded in 1896 in Nara Prefecture, specializes in the complex yamahai brewing method, known for its savory flavors. After halting production in 2000, fourth-generation owner Takahiko Ohkura resumed brewing in 2003, launching the brands “Kinko” and “Ohkura,” aiming for distinctive sake with bright acidity.
