Description
Chogun Honjozo from the Chogun brand in the Niigata area is a foundational expression brewed with a small addition of distilled alcohol to sharpen the aroma and produce a lighter, cleaner body. Niigata is celebrated for its light-dry sake style, and a honjozo from this region typically emphasizes the clean, crisp, and dry characteristics associated with the prefecture's brewing philosophy. Soft local water derived from snowmelt contributes to the smooth finish that defines Niigata's approachable everyday sake.

The spring water in the route plateau is prepared, and the water of the castle pumped from the store's well is used for split water. Indeed, it is a sake from Tojo that the earth was nurtured.
