Description
A ginjo from Shimaoka Shuzo, the brewery behind Gunmaizumi in Ota, Gunma. Founded in 1863, Shimaoka brews predominantly by the yamahai method using Gunma-grown sake rice and spring water from the Akagi highland, aging tanks for one to two years. The daiginjo in the lineup uses Yamada Nishiki polished to 35% and is cave-aged, setting the precision standard against which the ginjo class is measured.

Surrounded by beautiful Jomo mountains, Tone, and the clear stream of Watarase, Nitta Soho Izumi -go (now Ota City) shows the name of the place at the birthplace of the Kenshu Nitta clan at the center of the ancient Eastern Culture. It is a place that is blessed with rich historic sites and clear water resources. Izui is a hard water that contains a lot of micerals, and it has been through it for many years, thinking that it takes advantage of its characteristics as a mountain abolition.
