Tatenokawa “Komyo” Dewasansan
Yamagata prefecture
1% RPR sake, anyone?
No one imagined that 1% RPR was achievable until 2016 brewing year when Tatenokawa Brewing Company obtained that skill. It takes 1800 hours and 2.5 months to create these pristine pearls of rice, and we can’t imagine the ultimate care this sake goes through. Made with local Dewasansan sake rice, Yamagata KA and Association No. 1801 yeast—take in the flavor experience only those who have tasted it will know.

Tatenokawa Brewing Company
Who would have thought that a sake brewery founded in 1832 would develop a cutting edge identity hundreds of years later? Tatenokawa’s ambition (achieving 1% rice polishing ratio) and global friendships (Foo Fighters and Phoenix) have gained much attention in the last two decades to go along with a deep respect for their traditional methods and unwavering quality. They even have a playful brand honoring a tabby cat that wandered into their brewery, whom they call Tatenyan. They are one of the few breweries that only produce junmai daiginjo, reaching fans globally with products that will ultimately impress you ultimately with their delicious flavor.
