About
The Junmai Kinokawa was the first junmai category sake to win a gold medal at the Fukuoka Regional Taxation Bureau Sake Appraisal Competition in the 2015 fiscal year (Heisei 27). Enjoyable chilled or warmed (kan), it pairs with a wide range of dishes, from seafood to meat. We continue to brew it with care as an all-rounder junmai sake that suits any meal.
