Honjozo Sekizakura is a honjozo sake from Niigata Prefecture, brewed in the regional style characterized by soft water fermentation that yields a delicate, light-bodied profile. Made with rice polished to 70% and a small addition of distilled alcohol to enhance aroma, it offers a clean, gently dry palate typical of Niigata's tanrei karakuchi brewing tradition.
