Akebono Shuzo is a historic sake brewery in Aizubangemachi, Fukushima, with over 200 years of tradition. Brewery aprons like this were originally made as promotional items for liquor shops and restaurants, so they are rare even in Japan.
With the rising global interest in Japanese sake, these traditional aprons have become popular overseas as well. Tenmei—meaning “daybreak”—is Akebono Shuzo’s flagship brand, now recognized nationwide.
