About This Sake

A fresh food sake brewed with Gohyakumangoku produced in the Johata district of Nanto City, Toyama Prefecture. It has a full-bodied flavor and refreshing acidity in a fine line that is typical of Gohyakumangoku. Since long ago, there has been a common belief that sake is made with technique. However, we have learned from the rice of this region that there are areas that cannot be expressed by technology alone. Gohyakumangoku produced in Nanto City, Toyama Prefecture, is the starting point of "Moriboshi".
