A sake that is good even when aged. It is not a sake that must be aged, but rather a sake that is good when aged. I hope that we can brew a sake that becomes even better when aged. The aging of sake has a wider temperature range compared to wine. There are aged sakes that are sometimes matured in extreme high temperatures, from room temperature (cool temperature) in the brewery to ice temperature. To brew a sake that reaches a good state when aged, we rely on classical varieties of sake rice.

The taste of sake is not just about 'dry' and 'sweet.' There is also a flavor known as 'umakuchi.' The moment it touches your mouth, the richness and sweetness of the rice spread throughout, leaving a refreshing aftertaste that passes through your throat and then quickly disappears. This is the true delicious sake.

Made with locally sourced rice, it is a classic brew loved by sake enthusiasts.

Believing in the 'unity with food', we aim for a harmonious relationship where not only does the sake play a supporting role, but it also brings out the flavors of the food, while at the same time enhancing the taste of the sake with the food. A sake that leaves a deep flavor and lingering finish, yet finishes cleanly.
