About

The aim is to be a sake for the evening drink that pairs well with food, stays enjoyable without becoming tiresome, and leaves no hangover the next day. Although it is a futsushu (ordinary sake), the rice is polished and the brewing follows the fundamentals of ginjo production, with slow, long fermentation at low temperature and careful preparation, making it the most familiar and substantial sake in the range. Its powerful, outstanding crispness has earned it the nickname "shiripin no osake" among regular fans. Brewed with the fundamentals of ginjo production, slowly fermented at low temperature over a long period, and carefully prepared, this is the most familiar and substantial sake. It can be enjoyed from chilled to warmed (kan).
