This sake with crystalline transparency has refreshing but pure and clean aromas. The fresh shades evoke the apple and the pear, the flowering of honeysuckle, with a hint of aromatic such as the chervil and the laurel.

On the palate, like the perfume, it leaves an impression of freshness. The light attack leads to a soft and fluid finish thanks to a pleasant acidity. The mouth is sweet, enveloping, on ratings of well-ripe yellow fruits.

Its freshness and herbaceous flavor allow her to accompany the entrances and salads based on herbs and citrus fruits. We also recommend this saké in accompaniment to the poultry created.

Founded in 1893, Sasaki Shuzo brews his sakés at "Rakuchu", in the heart of the historic city center of Kyoto. Some 300 original breweries, it is the only one to be lost in this neighborhood.

The exceptional topography of Kyoto and the abundance of water were the main reasons why the Sake was brewed in Kyoto and justifying that Kyoto was appointed as capital for 1,000 years.

SASAKI SHUZO

It is a region blessed with good quality groundwater. Good water is said to have been one of the reasons why Hideyoshi picked this place, and the brewery is still using "Ginmei-sui" water, which is said to have been used by Sen no Rikyu for his tea ceremonies.
Our craftsmen are devoting themselves to produce sake traditionally, by maintaining the spirit of “handing down Kyoto Tradition” and making use of the taste of sake rice.
Also, they are aiming to produce delicious sake, not only by inheriting early experiences but also by actively undertaking new technologies and cooperating with industry-academia.
This is a 100% Kyoto-made sake using all Kyoto grown rice, “Gohyakumangoku” for the kôji rice, “Iwai” and “Kyo no Kagayaki” for the sake rice used for fermentation and mash, Kyoto originated yeast "Kyoto no Koto" and “Ginmei-sui” water that springs up from the former site of Jurakudai.
