By [[1732]], the Nakamura shop is known to have been producing not only ''homeishu'', but also [[plum wine]] (''umeshu''), chrysanthemum wine, ''nintôshu''<!--忍冬酒-->, and ''yôkishu''<!--養気酒--> (another medicinal product), among several other varieties. Meanwhile, Toshimasa also incrementally expanded the family's property over the course of the 1710s-1720s; significant portions of this property would double as the town's ''honjin'', hosting sizable parties of foreign envoys and other notable elite guests.

In the 1760s, the region saw a roughly ten-year period of terrible rains and floods, which brought crop failures and disease. Villagers rose up in protest, demanding tax relief. Protestors attacked the ''homeishu'' brewery as well, and took or were given more than two ''[[koku]]'' worth of liquor. In the end, though, domain officials suppressed the uprising, and arrested a great many villagers. Incidentally, around that same time, there were ten families in Tomo which held ''kabu'' for producing liquor, and six had allowed their licenses to lapse, leaving only the Nakamura and three other households.

By [[1771]], however, the Nakamura family was the only one remaining. The family continued to prosper, and incrementally acquired additional buildings, expanding both its brewing operations, and its prominence within the town.
