Description
Hitomebore rice from Miyagi is polished to 65% for this honjozo, brewed at a Shiroishi brewery founded in 1873 at the foot of the Zao mountain range using Zao underground spring water drawn from 50 meters depth. The soft, mineral-light water shapes a sake with transparency and clean flavor. Zao Shuzo has accumulated over 33 gold medals at the National New Sake Competition over its history.
