Description
Ajigasawa Yamahai Junmai uses Hana Omoi rice polished to 60% and is brewed by the yamahai method, which builds a naturally derived lactic acid starter for a more robust, structured fermentation. Ozaki Shuzo, the sole remaining brewery on Aomori's western coast, uses Shirakami mountain spring water throughout production, giving this sake a clean backbone with the added depth typical of yamahai.

Ozakishuzo Co.,Ltd
Aomori
It is the only sake brewery on the West Coast of Aomori Prefecture, which was founded in 1860 (Mansunobu first year) and established a company in March 1954. As the birthplace of the Tsugaru clan, it is historically old, and we have been working hard every day for careful sake brewing, with the spring water of the world natural heritage, Shirakami Mountains, and the World Natural Heritage Mountains.
