Sommelier's comment

This brewery's confident work, this brewed aged sake. The vanilla-like scent matches the sweetness, reminiscent of chestnuts and bananas. The slightly aroma of Hida no Mori and the bitterness derived from sake rice Hidahomare are also felt, resulting in a complex and profound aged sake.


Brewer: Kawashiri Sake Brewery

Founded 1839 Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture

Kawashiri Sake Brewery is a very unique brewery. Due to the very small production volume, it is difficult to distribute and can only be purchased at the local Hida Takayama. And the product specializes in aged sake. Kawajiri sake brewed by the old-fashioned method has a rough taste when it is new, and the true value of mellow sake appears only when it is aged for a long time.
