About

Brewing sake is like raising a child: the more care and attention you give, the more wonderfully it responds. This is because sake is nothing other than a living thing. Sake is made through the complex interplay of many living organisms, from koji mold to yeast. These living things have given us sake, a pleasure of food enjoyed since ancient times, and in that sense they are truly the 'Sake no Sei' (spirits of sake).
