凤鸣 からくち 本酿造

Houmei Karakuchi Honjozo from Houmeishuzou in Hyogo is a dry-style honjozo, where karakuchi indicates a lower residual sugar level and a crisp, clean finish that contrasts with sweeter expressions. A controlled addition of distilled alcohol in the honjozo process lifts the aroma while the dry profile keeps the finish sharp and refreshing, making it versatile at the table. Brewed in Tanba-Sasayama, this expression reflects the region's tradition of crafting sake that complements the flavors of food rather than overwhelming them.
