Manufacturer "Nanbu Bijin (Iwate)"
De Nanbu Bijin brouwerij (oorspronkelijk Kuji Shuzo, is vernoemd naar de oprichting van de Kuji-familie en produceerde oorspronkelijk sojasaus), gelegen in de stad Ninohe, in de prefectuur Iwate, werd opgericht in 1902. Dit gebied in het noorden van Japan is gezegend met prachtige natuurreservaten: ongerept grondwater, twee nationale parken en een meer. Nanbu 南部 betekent letterlijk "zuidelijk", maar de werkelijke betekenis komt voort uit de traditionele naam van de regio. Bijin 美人 betekent "mooie vrouw" en is afgeleid van de missie van de brouwerij om schone, mooie sake te produceren.
Nanbu Bijin is internationaal geliefd, want het doet zijn Engelse naam "Southern Beauty" eer aan. De huidige eigenaar, 4e generatie, de heer Kosuke Kuji, is een groot voorstander van het promoten van sake wereldwijd.
