Abekan was established in 1716 near Shiogama Shrine in Miyagi. They have been appointed as an official supplier of sacred saké for this shrine to this day. Today Abekan-shuzou is led by Mr. Kankuro Abe, 14th head of the family, and saké making is handled by Toji, Mr. Toshiaki Hiratsuka. The Sanriku coast is famous for seafood, especially since Shiogama has the highest number of sushi restaurants per capita in Japan. The authentic saké of Abekan is characterized by its purity and smoothness, and it is the most loved saké in this town known for sushi. Abekan-shuzou's saké is mainly distributed and consumed locally, and a small portion of the production is shipped outside of Miyagi. Their brands include Shikino-Matsushima, Otokoyama, and Abekan. ‘Abekan’ is a premium brand, distributed to selected saké shops on allocation.

Abekan "Rooster" is made from "Sasanishiki" (famous as an edible rice) and Kuranohana (local to Miyagi). It's a Junmai-ginjou with a rice polishing rate of 55%, aged in the cellar during summertime, and all the elements are well integrated. The R5BY Rooster has a smooth texture, a rich body, a dry finish, and is refined. The striking image of a rooster catches the eye. The morning crowing of a rooster has historically been a symbol of good fortune, as it is considered to convey a positive omen. By the way, this little gimmick is also a regular event of Abekan during this season. Please peel off the double sticker label; you will find another artwork symbolizing good fortune.
