Furthermore, in 2003, the brewery made the "Junmaishu Declaration", stating that it would focus primarily on making Junmaishu, which is made from only water and rice, from that point onward. Its principal brands are "Hizen Kuragokoro" and "Takenosono". Taste-testing and purchasing of sake is possible at the brewery. The main building, middle storehouse, koji room where the fungus that ferments the rice is cultivated, west storehouse, east storehouse, the old rice mill room where the bran (the hard part near the skin) was removed, and annex are all registlated as Tangible Cultural Properties of Japan.
