Description
Our company motto is "Japanese sake brewed in harmony". Our brewers have inherited the techniques handed down from the time of the company's founding and support each other in our efforts to create good sake.

We have two breweries, "Dewazuru Brewery" and "Kariho Brewery," and we are particular about the water and sake rice we use for brewing. Most of the local rice used for sake brewing is grown by the brewery staff, and the rice is milled in-house.

Sampled @ RB Danish Summer Gathering 2013 day 1, Ulfborg. Bottle. Looks like water. Not a lot of aroma. Taste is so hard to describe. Anise maybe? No can’t be it, I dislike anise and this doesn’t taste too bad. Actually quite nice, but I have no idea how to rate this properly.
