Description
Daiginjo made from Yamada Nishiki polished to 40% and brewed with the brewery's distinctive yodan (four-stage) mashing process, in which glutinous mochi rice is added at the fourth stage to produce extra depth of flavor without heaviness. Water drawn from the Tanzawa mountain range at around 50 meters depth contributes a slightly hard mineral quality that drives a crisp finish. Named for the Soga brothers, the brand has been a landmark of Kanagawa sake since the brewery's founding in 1870.

Ishii Jozo Co.,Ltd
Kanagawa
Located in the western Kanagawa prefecture, which is blessed with rich water and greenery, it is surrounded by the beautiful mountains of the Tanzawa and Hakone Mountains on all sides.
The representative sake "Soga's Honor" is named after the Soga Brothers, and has been popular among local people for many years. When the plum blooms (there is Soga Umebayashi nearby), many tourists visit every year, overlapping with the fresh sake.
