Hakuryu (Yoshida Shuzo)

Founded in 1806. Yoshida Shuzo is located in Eiheiji, Fukui. The town is named for the famous temple of Eihei-ji. Eiheiji is located in the midstream of Kuzuryu River, the source of which is the sacred Mt. Haku. Known as a town of a crystal clear river, Eiheiji welcomes many fishermen who are after Ayu or sweetfish and Masu salmon. As Eiheiji is in the central part of the Fukui plain, it is also known as a fertile rice-producing area. The clear water, fertile rice-growing environment, and cold, harsh winter distinctive to the Hokuriku region. With a suitable environment for sake brewing, Eiheiji has long been known as one of the best sake-producing regions in the prefecture.

Eihei-ji is a large temple complex and active monastery standing on a cedar covered slope in the mountains. It was founded by Dogen Zenji about 770 years ago. Even now, about 200 trainee monks undergo ascetic training, mainly practicing seated meditation and reading the sutras. Visitors can tour the temple for a day or stay there overnight as Eihei-ji provides lodging, including two meals and the chance for Zazen meditation and the reading of Buddhist scripture.

After feeling the spirit of Zen in Eihei-ji, why not you can indulge yourself in tasting Fukui sake?
