About

A clear, fruity sake brewed with groundwater from the underground streams (fukuryusui) that flow down from the Kuju Mountains, known as the 'roof of Kyushu.' Groundwater is used as the brewing water. It is sold in very few places outside Oita Prefecture, and it is so local that it rarely appears in online searches. It has the refreshing, refined sweetness of the rice itself, making for a pleasant drink. It can be enjoyed across a wide range of temperatures, from chilled to warmed (kan). Its clean, clear taste does not tire the palate, making it a good everyday table sake. This sake comes from a brewery that received a gold award at the Annual Japan Sake Awards in 2010 (Heisei 22).
