Description
Gohyakumangoku, named to celebrate Niigata's historic rice output milestone, is a variety prized for producing clean, clear sake with a light body and subtle, lasting flavor. Aoki Shuzo uses this local rice in this Junmai Ginjo to craft an expression that leans into Niigata's tradition of understated elegance, while still carrying the rice umami that the Kakurei brand has built its reputation on since 1717.

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.
