About
Kijoshu is a sake made by using sake instead of brewing water in the tome jikomi (final stage of the three-stage brewing process). The result is a slightly luxurious, refined sweetness. This Hakkaisan Kijoshu is bottled before aging, so it has a fresh, clean mouthfeel when newly made. Customers can also enjoy watching it gradually deepen into a rich amber color and following how its flavor changes as it matures.
