"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.

Ota Shuzo Dokan's Umeshu (plum wine) is a joyous drinking experience. Made with one year-old sake instead of soju, and then elevated with the maceration of ume plums and korizuta sugar, this wine manages to be highly drinkable and complex all at once.. Produced by a 5th generation samurai family, it's evident that the decades of precision and dedication have given Ota Shuzo Dokan the skillset to make the finest umeshu available in Australia. Not as sweet as other umeshu, this wine is perfect in cocktails or as a simple, solo treat, served cold over ice. Once opened the Ota 'Umeshu' will last well for at least 10 - 12 weeks, ideally in a refrigerator.

A bold fragrant nose leads to ripe melon & fennel aromas. The palate has a light touch of sweetness and a robust round mouthfeel. Great as an aperitif or with lighter styled dishes. Serve chilled. Once opened the Ota Shuzo 'Dokan Daiginjo' will last well for at least 3 - 4 weeks, ideally in a refrigerator.

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.
