About
Surrounded on all sides by mountains, the Iga Basin has clear underground water (furyusui) that is used to grow the rice. In this land of Iga, the sake was brewed by hand with careful attention to each step. A calm, settled aroma and a moderate acidity. The clean finish (kire) further enhances the flavors of food. It can be enjoyed across a wide range of temperatures, from chilled sake (reishu) to hot sake (atsukan).
