About
Though it has the fresh, crisp character of a true daiginjo, it is also meant to be enjoyed with food, in keeping with the style of Kamikawa Taisetsu Sake Brewery. Message from the Toji "Nada no otokozake, Fushimi no onnazake" (Nada's "men's sake" and Fushimi's "women's sake") is a saying from the Edo period that describes how the water used in brewing shapes the character of sake. The softness of Ryokkyu-gura contrasts with the strength of Hekiun-gura. Even in daiginjo made with delicate brewing methods, the difference shows clearly, so we encourage you to try the two side by side.
