Description
This special sake from Sawanoi combines tradition and innovation while maximizing the potential of water. It is made from Yamada Nishiki sake rice (grown in Hyogo Prefecture's special A-rated region) polished to 35% and brewed using the traditional method known as Kimoto-zukuri, which the brewery has been preserving since its establishment. This sake offers a smooth mouthfeel with a balanced blend of the deep umami characteristic of Kimoto-zukuri brewing and delicate acidity unique to the style. It features a fragrant and elegant aroma reminiscent of pears and melons, with a long-lasting finish.

Ozawa Shuzo Co.,Ltd.
Tokyo
Ozawa Sake Brewery was founded in Bushu Sawai Village, a highway line connecting Edo and Koshu in 1702. The sake inscription "Sawanoi" is derived from the place name "Sawai Village", which is given from the appearance of rich water flowing as a swamp.
Water that springs out of the cave that excavated the rocks of the Chichibu Formo, the rich greenery, the clear Okutama air, the selected raw rice, the sharpened technique, and one drop. It is Sawanoi's belief that the finished sake is the sincerity and efforts of all companies.
We aim to make sake brewing so that customers who drink can feel the natural breath of Okutama.
