[Hakuryu Brewery] Junmai Ginjo Nama Genshu (Unpasteurized, Undiluted Sake) - Freshly Pressed This Morning - 720ml

"Kesa Shibori," a pure rice ginjo unpasteurized sake, is a freshly pressed, unfiltered sake that is normally only available at the brewery.
This sake is freshly pressed and has not been processed in any way, so it has a golden-yellow color and may have sediment from yeast and other components settled at the bottom, but this does not affect its quality.
Enjoy the refreshing aroma and rich flavor of this freshly brewed sake.

≪ Introducing Hakuryu Sake Brewery >>

Hakuryu Sake Brewery is located in Agano City, southeast of Niigata City in Niigata Prefecture, and is also famous for Hyō Lake, where swans come to spend the winter.
Founded in 1839 (Tenpo 10), while many sake breweries in Echigo were established by landowners, Hakuryu Sake Brewery began in Niigata, a port town that was thriving due to the Kitamae-bune trade with Hokkaido. The first generation, Mozaemon Sasaya, branched off from the main family, which ran a shipping agency, and opened a brewery in the area.

≪ Commitment to raw materials≫

Hakuryu Sake Brewery primarily uses "Gohyakumangoku," a sake rice variety representative of Niigata Prefecture, for its sake brewing.
For over 20 years, the sake rice has been cultivated by farmers in the former Suibara-machi area and members of the "Sake Rice Council," which was established together with JA Kita-Kan Minami. Every year, discussions are held to improve the quality of the sake rice.
Currently, we are expanding our scale by handling products such as "Koshi Tanrei," which is widely used in high-grade sakes like Daiginjo, while continuing our efforts to achieve even higher quality.
The sake "Hakuryu," brewed with rice grown in the same climate and soil as the brewery, fully embodies the charm of Agano City, a renowned rice-producing region, and the pride of its producers.
