Description

Matsunotsukasa Kimoto Junmai Ginjo Shinsui combines the traditional kimoto yeast-starter method with ginjo-grade polishing and pure-rice brewing, producing a sake that bridges the rich, earthy complexity of kimoto fermentation with the lighter, more aromatic character of the ginjo class. Matsuse Shuzo in Ryuo Town, Shiga, uses soft Aichi River underground water and contract-grown rice to develop a layered profile with elevated natural acidity, mineral depth, and a refined floral note that emerges from the ginjo-level polish. The kimoto method's demanding production adds both complexity and exceptional aging potential.

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.
