Description
The tokubetsu honjozo from Makino Shuzo is elevated above the standard honjozo by a specific distinction in rice, brewing method, or polishing ratio that the brewery regards as exceptional. At Gunma's oldest sake house, founded in 1690, 'special' carries real weight: this is a polished, refined honjozo with clear structure, clean aromatics, and a dry, precise finish that places it firmly in the premium tier. An ideal bottle for those exploring the refined potential of the honjozo category.

Gunma
Genroku 3rd (1690) The first Chobei starts making sake brewing. Until the Edo period, Nagabei was invaded for generations, and the brand of sake was "Longmori."
When the Shogunate account magistrate and Oguri Uenosuke traveled to the United States in the first year of Manno, the ancestors followed and returned safely after returning to Japan, and raised the celebration in a large cup, and the sake name was renovated as the "Oshiga Cup."
