The house of Shuzo Takeno was built by four Sakakura associations which were closed in 1947. In 2000, local historian Yukio Ashida brought various types of rice to the Takeno Shuzo family Kame no Ou sake.

This sake is remarkably fresh. The first nose is a wonderful illustration of the airy, fruity (raspberry) and floral (lily) style of modern sakes. With aeration, it becomes more and more herbaceous (chamomile). Both lively and unctuous, the attack in the mouth is marked by notes of white flowers (jasmine, lily of the valley) and spices (pepper).

Japan-Best is first and foremost a story about Japanese craftsmen with the influence of contemporary design. We are inspired by the timeless beauty of traditional Japanese craftsmanship, and their ability to adapt to our modern lifestyle. The more brands we meet, the more passionate we become about the stories behind each product; the skills of the craftsmen, or the long tradition of an object left unchanged for generations yet somehow remaining contemporary.

Japan-Best is a collection of Japanese brands, which we have selected for the originality of their design, the quality of their production, the fact that their production is “Made in Japan”, and the long history that they maintain, quite often for several generations.

Our selection of Japanese food is also based on craftsmanship in agriculture. We choose brands based on how they are made and we love brands that continue to use traditional natural techniques to grow food and prepare it. Good packaging and design is always and added joy to find!
