Description
Matsunotsukasa Junmai Ginjo Ryuouyamadanishiki uses Yamada Nishiki rice grown under contract specifically in Ryuo Town, Shiga, the same town where Matsuse Shuzo has brewed since 1860, creating a hyper-local expression where the rice and the brewery share the same soil. The ginjo-grade polishing and pure-rice fermentation allow the specific character of Ryuo-grown Yamada Nishiki, shaped by the town's mineral-light water and fertile agricultural land near Lake Biwa, to express itself fully. This terroir-focused sake represents the brewery's commitment to farming the very land it calls home.

Matsuse Sake Brewery
Shiga
I always want to be myself in the sake brewing of "Matsunoji". In order to be a "pine boss", it starts with local ingredients such as liquor rice grown locally and water that sucks from 120m underground. Thanks to the land of Ryuo -cho, we are carefully sake brewing so that you can feel the atmosphere of the warehouse and the spread of rural areas.
