About
Founded in 1819 (Bunsei 2). The brewery is located in Murakami, a rice-producing area known for quality sake rice such as Gohyakumangoku and Takane Nishiki. The water, said to influence the taste of sake, is groundwater from the Mimen River (三面川), known for its salmon run. The soft water, with its finely textured sweetness, creates sake with a balanced, crisp finish. This junmai ginjo is made from Niigata-grown Gohyakumangoku rice, carefully polished to 50%, and is characterized by a gentle aroma and umami. Mellow, with a clean aftertaste, this sake is best enjoyed chilled.
