About

Until 2021, the brewery used Nipponbare, a rice variety grown locally in Koga city. To improve the quality of the sake, starting with the 2022 brewing year, it switched to Hitachi Nishiki, a sake rice variety from Ibaraki Prefecture. Also recommended chilled in a wine glass, or warmed to nurukan (lukewarm).
