Description
Chogun Junmaihattannishiki is a pure-rice junmai from the Chogun brand brewed with Hattan Nishiki, a sake rice variety developed in Hiroshima prefecture known for producing sake with a mild, soft flavor and gentle acidity. Using a rice from a different region introduces an interesting cross-regional character, resulting in a junmai with a rounded, slightly subdued profile compared to locally grown rice varieties. The combination of Hattan Nishiki's characteristics with Niigata's soft water creates a harmonious, gently flavored expression.

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.
