In 2001, Marumoto-san wanted to add a new dimension to his sake portfolio. After studying Belgian beer and champagne yeasts, he decided to experiment with producing naturally carbonated sparkling sake. After trial and experimentation, he successfully developed Hou Hou Shu and Hana Hou Hou Shu Rose sparkling sake. These were the first naturally sparkling sake in Japan. Made like Prosecco, this sake undergoes a secondary fermentation in the tank.
Situated in the Chugoku Area, which includes Hiroshima to the west and Tottori to the north, Okayama is known as the “Land of Sunshine,” because of its sunny and dry weather.

The Seta Inland Sea, which lies between the coast of Okayama and the island of Shikoku yields wonderful oysters, snapper and water eel.
