Shishi no Sato is brewed by Matsuura Shuzo in the Yamanaka Onsen district of Ishikawa Prefecture, using soft water drawn from beneath Mount Yakushi. Every product in the lineup is made in the junmai pure rice style using traditional foaming yeast and minimal water absorption, with the brewery's stated purpose being to become the best partner to food by creating sake with gentle aroma and lively acidity that whets rather than overwhelms the appetite.
