A timeless taste born from tradition
The brewery, located in the cool coastal area of northern Japan, has focused on the traditional Kimoto-brewing method for 100 years. This labor-intensive production style shows the commitment to quality by the founder and it hasn't changed from the inception of the brewery. Don't let the name “grand-children” fool you because its authentic medium body sake fit for seasoned tasters. The fruity flavors are a great representation of authentic brewing and the name implies infinite commitment to the quality.
