About

A sake made with Hokkaido-grown rice that asks what Hokkaido sake can achieve across Japan. Conceived with the national sake competition in mind, it is the finest sake our brewery makes. [Message from the Toji] This junmai daiginjo is the finest our brewery has made, crafted with all of our skill and dedication, and it is the kind of sake that becomes an entry for the Annual Japan Sake Awards and similar events. It is brewed with sake-brewing rice grown in Hokkaido and takes on the renowned sake rice of the mainland, including Yamada Nishiki and Omachi. We dedicate this junmai sake to the passionate growers across Hokkaido who grow our rice. We hope you will savor it with that spirit in mind.
