Description
Brewed at Aoki Shuzo in Uonuma, one of Japan's snowiest regions, this ginjo draws on water sourced from the pristine snowmelt environment that has shaped Niigata's sake culture for centuries. Rather than pursuing the region's trademark tanrei-karakuchi (light and dry) style, Kakurei aims for tanrei-umakuchi, balancing clean elegance with genuine rice umami in every sip.

Aoki Shuzo Co.,Ltd
Nigata
A sake brewery with a history of 300 years in Uonuma, a snowy country. Founded 2 years (1717). Aoki Sake Brewery's sake, which is represented by "crane -age", is created by the various grace of the snowy country and the traditional technique of Echigo Mori. Among the Niigata sake, which has many "Tanrei dry", we will aim to make the sake brewing of "Tanrei -kuchi", which leaves the original taste of sake rice, and inherits the taste for the next 100 years.
