Description
Hokushika Shiboritate is a freshly pressed seasonal sake from Hokushika Shuzo in Odate, Akita, released in winter immediately after pressing to capture the vibrant, lively character of new-harvest sake before aging or pasteurization. Akita's cold winters provide ideal conditions for this style, with low temperatures during pressing preserving fresh, forward aromatics and a clean finish. This seasonal offering represents the prefecture's tradition of producing lively, food-compatible sake from locally grown rice in Japan's premier cold-climate brewing region.
