Fudoh “Junmai Daiginjo”
Chiba prefecture
Strikes a regal presence
Fudoh comes from a nickname of a god enshrined at Naritasan, a famous temple in Narita, Chiba prefecture. Like that god, this sake has a strong presence. With no charcoal fining done at all, this sake retains its most true flavor brimming with red apple and candy sweetness. It has a thick texture that finishes dry, a nice balance to the sweetness on the front of the palate. Fudoh “Junmai Daiginjo” is a proud gold winner of the 2015 and 2019 International Wine Challenge.

Nabedana
Nabedana’s ancestors started brewing sake in Narita, Chiba, by Naritasan Temple more than 320 years ago in the Edo period (1603-1868) during the era of the Tokugawa shogunate. Their brewery, located in Kozaki, Chiba, has access to an abundance of high-quality water and sake rice. For the last few decades they have been brewing their signature brand, Jinyu, using the best ingredients from the region, but their legacy of brewing the finest sake has been a family tradition for more than three centuries! Their brewing motto, “Never compromise,” has been passed down to more than 19 generations.
