About

Milled to 70%, yet free of off-flavors and carrying enough body, this sake offers a flavor and clean finish to be enjoyed in full. It is a Tokachi-style “nomasaru sake” (a sake that invites you to keep drinking). 【Message from the Toji】 The brewing water at Hekiun-gura is a medium-hard water with a noticeable mineral content. Water has a considerable effect on sake. Compared with the soft, delicate character of Ryokkyu-gura, this junmai can be described as a sake with a satisfying body that goes down with a gulp (“gokku”), a sake for true drinkers.
