Description
Fukugao's Honjozo uses Gohyakumangoku rice polished to 60% at this 1897-founded Sanjo City brewery, where extra-soft, naturally sand-filtered water from the Ikarashi River has long defined the delicate, clean fermentation character of every product. The founder's aspiration to brew sake that makes people smile with its 'happy face' quality is encoded in this accessible, reliably crafted everyday honjozo.
