Description
Honjozo Horan from Houranshuzou in Tochigi takes its name from the brewery's Horan brand, written with characters representing a mythical phoenix-like bird that symbolizes good fortune and majesty. The honjozo classification involves a small addition of distilled alcohol, which brightens the aroma and produces a cleaner, lighter body compared to purely rice-based sake. Tochigi's access to clean water from the Nasu volcanic region supports a fresh, balanced honjozo style suited to everyday drinking.
