The aroma is gentle and sweet, derived from rice. The smooth mouthfeel is pleasant, just like clear, flowing water, and the moderate mouthfeel is followed by a pleasant finish. After the flavor of the ingredients produced in this region fills the mouth, the well-balanced aftertaste of five flavors quietly fades away with a sharp taste.

This junmai ginjo-shu is brewed using local Aizan grapes from Banshu. It is a juicy sake with a miraculous balance of "sweetness," "umami," and "sharpness," all of which may seem contradictory at first glance. The sake is carefully fermented at low temperature for a long time, and the freshness and silkyness are enhanced by the Shin Gin rice polishing and gravity system adopted this season. It is a bottle that reveals the depth of Aizan's nostalgia.

Risshun Asashimusubori" is a celebratory sake suitable for the day of Risshun, the joyous celebration of spring. The brewing process is sometimes said to be "more difficult than daiginjo" because the quality of the rice and the climate changes each year, and the sake must be perfectly controlled and delicately adjusted before it is pressed on Risshun Day. The brewing process is sometimes said to be "more difficult than daiginjo." It is from this difficult sake brewing process that "Risshun Asa Shibori" is born, which requires the skill of the toji. The freshly pressed sake is delivered to the customer as soon as possible after being purified at a shrine to pray for good health, family safety, and business prosperity for all those involved with the sake. Let's celebrate the fresh spring with freshly brewed sake.

This freshly pressed Junmai Daiginjo is bottled in its unblended state to celebrate the start of the New Year. The label is painted by the late calligrapher Inamura Undo, who supported the Kuroryu brewery in the early days of ginjo-shu. The Chinese zodiac sign for 2025 is "Snake. The snake has the image of a vindictive animal, but on the other hand, it is also said to be an animal that never forgets to return a favor. It is said that a snake saved by the king of Sui Dynasty in China "appeared to him in a dream and offered him treasures. Snakes that shed their skin are associated with "resurrection and rebirth," and are considered an auspicious animal linked to immortality and strong life force. Snakes have also been revered as "messengers of the gods" because they can survive without food. I hope that the New Year will be filled with sincere smiles as we drink special black dragon zodiac sake at the banquet to discuss a bright future."

The hiragana "Takachiyo" is a limited edition sake produced exclusively for dealers, inspired by the mellowness of fruit. The blue "Takachiyo" is an orikarami sake, meaning it is fired only once. Despite its unusual production, it is surprisingly the only year-round product in the "Takachiyo" series. In this sake, the image of "grapefruit" is used. It is not the result, but rather it is made to resemble a grapefruit. It is a very interesting experiment. When you open the bottle, of course, you will find a fresh, grapefruit-like, and refreshing top-tasting aroma.
