Description
Honjozo Shussejo Aoigomon is a honjozo sake from Hamamatsu Shuzo in Shizuoka, where the brand name Shussejo references Hamamatsu Castle, historically known as the Castle of Promotion for its association with rising Tokugawa-era officials. The Aoi crest (aoigomon) featured on the label is the three-leaf hollyhock emblem of the Tokugawa clan, tying this everyday honjozo to the region's shogunate heritage. Brewed with Shizuoka yeast and local rice, it presents a clean, lightly aromatic profile characteristic of Shizuoka brewing.
