For the fall foodie

“Aki,” which means fall, is a seasonal release called “hiyaoroshi,” made by taking Denshin “Ine” in its undiluted form, and storing it in a cool place over the summer. The ample umami that develops, along with a tropical aroma and a bold, dry finish, pairs well with rich proteins with sauce, and hearty fall vegetables. Enjoy it over crushed ice or even cut with soda, and relish fall’s bounty.

Ippongi Kubohonten

Ippongi comes from Zen language meaning “supreme truth, a state that achieves the greatest knowledge.” The history of the brewery goes back to 1902. It is located in Fukui prefecture beneath the Mount Haku, the best location for sake brewing with clean water and beautiful rice fields. Their famous “Denshin” brand is brewed differently with seasonality. It literally means “heart-to-heart” because the brewers believe the magic of this sake can help people connect and communicate from the heart.
