Description
Chogun Junmaisembonnishiki is a pure-rice junmai from the Chogun brand brewed with Senbonnishiki, a sake rice developed in Shizuoka prefecture valued for its moderate protein content and ability to produce clean, delicately flavored sake. The use of Senbonnishiki adds a regional cross-brewing dimension, and the rice's characteristics tend to support lighter, more restrained umami profiles. Niigata's cold water and careful fermentation elevate the natural qualities of this Shizuoka-origin rice into an elegant junmai 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.
