Another rare sake brewed with black koji from Ikemame brewers in the Fukuoka Prefecture. Its Turtle Red sake is aromatic and complex and exhibits a fine acidity and flavours of red berry fruit and umami on the palate with a rich texture and clean finish. Pair it with finely sliced Wagyu steak.

Made with the sake rice variety Miyama Nishiki, cultivated by our own sake rice research institute, this is a sake that shows off the best characteristics of the rice: a deep sharp citrus like acidity. A slightly reserved nose lends itself to an expansive rustic flavour. A clean sake with a good balance of acidity that pairs well with all type of food.

"Soubei Wase'' is a native variety of the Shonai region of Yamagata Prefecture, which is the parent of ``Kamenoo'', which is called the ``phantom sake rice''. It is more rare than ever. The logo mark, which combines the family crest of the brewery family, “Genjisha” and “shield,” expresses the intention to continue to protect what has been handed down.

"Kamenoo" is a variety called "phantom sake rice" discovered in 1893 (Meiji 26) by Tokunoka Abe, a current farmer in Shonai Town. Using that "Kamenoo", it was brewed with a special preparation formula that was done at the time of the founding of Tategawa Sake Brewery, which was to fill the pumped water (reduce the proportion of water used during preparation). .. The scent is a little more modest than the general Tatenogawa series. It tastes good, the acidity tightens the taste, and it doesn't feel as sweet as the value of sake. The elegant aroma is suitable for sake during meals, and it is finished as a liquor with a core that has an excellent balance of sweet and acid.

In this Nigori (cloudy) Umeshu made with Nanko Ume fruit from Wakayama, the pulp from the macerated Ume fruit is added to the Umeshu liqueur to give the liquid added texture from the fruit itself. This has a wonderful aroma of Ume, a sweet yet tart character on the palate, full body and a refreshing acidic finish. Great chilled on its own, or in a cocktail like a Spritz.

Brewed with Yamada Nishiki rice polished to 50%, this delicious shu from the appellation of Niigata is representative of the Niigata Tanrei style smooth, light and fresh. Aromas of white flowers and rose petals follow through to a palate of gentle acidity and balanced body with a clean and crisp finish. Match it with seared Bluefin tuna.

Round aroma and soft palate. Gentle taste of rice expands in the mouth. Enjoy it at various temperatures, chilled through hot.

Shin Whisky Umeshu is a plum liqueur made with 100% Japanese plums brewed with sochu (Japanese distilled rice beverage), which is then finished with Akashi whisky. Savor the rich and well-balanced flavour of citrus and vanilla with moderate sweetness, and enjoy the lingering aftertaste of wooden aroma with distinctive notes of whisky.

"Kagaboshi" is a dialect unique to the Shonai region of Yamagata Prefecture, where the brewery is located, and means "dazzling" and "I can't keep my eyes open because it shines." Junmai Daiginjo made with 100% Dewa Sansan, named after the shining rice. The junmai daiginjo brewed this winter has a deep and mellow taste after being squeezed and aged quietly in the brewery. The fragrance is not too gorgeous and has a well-balanced volume as Junmai Daiginjo. Of course, this sake is also kimoto-zukuri, which can be said to be the symbol of the Hatsumago. When raw, it may be heavy, but it is a sake that goes well with food without any dullness. If you drink it chilled, be careful not to let it cool too much, as it will have a slightly bitter taste. The refreshing scent of ginjo and the swelled taste are in perfect harmony. It's perfect for delicious autumn dishes.
