Founded in 1853, Ando's miso, soy sauce, and pickles continue to carry on the traditional flavors.

Ando Brewing Main Store

We quietly cultivate traditional flavors that have transcended time. Our shop was founded over 170 years ago in Kakunodate, a historic town overflowing with the charm of the four seasons, and we have been in the brewing business ever since. While inheriting the techniques we have cultivated over the years, we continue to create Akita flavors that are in line with the times. Our brick storehouse, which is the symbol of our shop, is open to the public free of charge, and we also offer tastings of our proud miso, soy sauce, and pickles in the store's library storehouse.

Recommended souvenirs

This family-style soy sauce is additive-free, naturally brewed, and aged for over three years using the saishikomi method (where soy sauce is used instead of water during brewing). It’s excellent for sashimi, and the glaze and aroma of simmered dishes are outstanding.
