The Terada family used local rice and spring water to make famous wines. Although it adopted the modern industrial fermentation technology that swept the Japanese wine industry in the mid-20th century, it returned to the traditional brewing method more than 30 years ago. In addition, among the local rice cultivated without pesticides and fertilizers, only the water gushing from the shrine of Kenzaki is used to wash the rice and soak it. In the process of continuous fermentation from the Edo period, the collection warehouse and Aspergillus lived in the warehouse where the fermentation was prepared with charcoal, and the use of Aspergillus was self-cultured. In addition, the Pingkou Agricultural Future Research Institute, which produces "Yueguang", is a Patagonia farmer who invests in solar energy sharing and is committed to environmental renewable farming.
