Ten thousand years ago is just like today
A uniquely Shibetsu lifestyle in harmony with salmon

From here to Kunashiri Island on the horizon, all you can see is Nemuro Strait.Its excellent fishing grounds have drawn people since ancient times. This heritage of salmon has been certified as “Japan Heritage” by the Agency for Cultural Affairs of the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.
Shibetsu town sits at the heart of all this.
Through its history, and the lives of its people, we hope to express the value of our region.
In honor of this continuity, and in honor of salmon, our motto is “This Morning’s salmon” - “Kesa no Sake,” which is spelled the same forward and backward in Japanese: whether looking forward or backward, it is always “Kesa no Sake.”
