2024年7月27日、佐渡金山がユネスコ世界文化遺産に登録されました。尾畑酒造ではこの佐渡金山坑道で数種類のお酒を熟成させています。佐渡金山で寝かせた大吟醸の古酒。リンゴ蜜や蜂蜜、シナモン、ナツメグなど熟成した果物と重層的なレイヤー感が味わえる限定酒です。【佐渡金山について】徳川家康によって江戸幕府直轄地となった佐渡金山は、４００年前に金山周辺で１０万ともいわれる人が集まるゴールドラッシュの栄華を極めた。その坑道の一部に寝かせた秘蔵古酒。佐渡金山の坑道内は年間を通して約１１度を保ち、もちろん日光が入らないことから古酒には最適な環境。この自然の恵みで熟成させたお酒は、人の技術に加え、当時の繁栄を彷彿とさせる歴史という時間が育む唯一無二のお酒です。

Obata Sake Brewery was founded in 1892 (Meiji 25) by Obata Yososaku in the former town of Mano on Sado Island, and has been brewing craft-style sake ever since. The motto of sake brewing is "Shihou Wajo (Four Treasures in Harmony)." This means brewing with the harmony of the four treasures, adding "Sado," the place where sake is produced, to the three main elements of sake brewing: rice, water, and people. Our company's family crest, the four-eyed crest, also symbolizes this. Sado Island, where the Manotsuru is cultivated, is rich in historical, natural, and cultural diversity and is said to be a "miniature of Japan." The island is home to endangered Japanese crested ibises, and the brewery is committed to environmentally friendly agriculture. The water is extremely clear and soft, and is produced by melting snow from the two mountain ranges that run north and south of the island, seeping deep into the ground and then naturally filtering out to spring up at the foot of the mountain. The water is perfect for brewing light and soft sake.
