The Roaches【P】兵庫県民
Junmai-shu*, a special junmai-shu brewed in the "ikuhashi-zukuri" method, is stored in Yoshinosugi sake barrels and bottled when it is at its most fragrant and ready to drink. It is characterized by a mellow flavor with a lingering umami taste typical of junmai sake and the fresh aroma of Yoshinosugi cedar, as well as a crisp, refreshing throat sensation.

Sake Quality Dry / Slightly light +5.0
The highest quality sake barrels are made from Yoshino cedar.
The dry sake brewed in the "barrel bottle" process is packed in a 72-liter barrel and shipped in a bottle when the aroma of Yoshinosugi cedar is just right. Yoshino cedar is used because the Kii Peninsula, where the sake is produced, has a mild and rainy climate, and the cedar has a good aroma and the grain of the wood is uniform, which has long been considered the best quality for sake barrels.
Refreshing aroma and a tight, refreshing finish
Kiku-Masamune "Barrel Sake" is an authentic dry sake with the aroma of Yoshino cedar. Enjoy the fresh aroma of Yoshinosugi cedar and the crisp, tight taste. It is best served chilled in a refrigerator. It can also be served chilled (at room temperature) if desired. If you want to warm it up, we recommend warming it up to 40-45℃.
