Madonoume Shuzo

Founded in 1688, Saga Prefecture’s oldest still-operating brewery is currently in its 13th generation of succession.  Legend has it that in 1860, a plum tree branch made its way through one of the brewery’s windows and dropped a blossom into a tank of sake.  The name Mado No Ume (Plum of the Window) was bestowed upon the sake after receiving much acclaim from the local samurai lord.  Not yielding to brewing trends or production fads, Mado No Ume seeks to continue to brew the sake of tradition; the brewery slogan being: We will continue to bloom the flower of sake’s traditional culture.     

元禄元年（1688年）に創業し、328年続く佐賀県内最古の酒蔵です。現社長で13代目となる当社は流行に左右されず、伝統の味、窓乃梅らしさを常に追求する酒蔵で、古くから多くのファンに支えられ、現在に至ります。会社のスローガン『伝統と日本酒文化の花咲かせます。』をモットーにこれからも窓乃梅らしい酒を追及していきます。
