The Centre for Finance, Technology and Economics at Keio (FinTEK) (Director: Teruo Nakatsuma) of the Institute for Economic Studies, Faculty of Economics, Keio University; the Center for Social Innovation in Market Design (Director: Morimitsu Kurino) of the same institute; and the Fermentation and Brewing Research Institute (Director: Miki Matsuda) of the Faculty of Food and Agricultural Sciences, Fukushima University, have launched a proof-of-concept study of the food chain from brewing to sales in collaboration with Kinsuisho Sake Brewery Co., Ltd. In this project, sake from a brewery damaged in the 2022 earthquake is used in the brewing process of a new brewery to create aged sake, thereby carrying on the history and spirit of the old brewery to the new one and adding one-of-a-kind value to promote sales.
