Fresh as the dew

“Shiboritate” translates to “freshly squeezed,” and that’s exactly the vibe this sake gives off! Made using four different yeasts and Gohyakumangoku rice, “KID” Shiboritate is a seasonal sake that offers bright, crisp flavors that retain their charm due to being completely unpasteurized. You’ll find some bright umami floating amidst the flavor that’ll keep you coming back for more. And that softness? It comes from the brewery’s velvety soft water from an area called Koyasan.

Heiwa Brewing Company

A sake-loving gentleman married into the Yamamoto family and established the brewery in 1928, on what was originally temple grounds. After the hiatus during World War II, the company was renamed Heiwa, meaning peace and harmony. When the current fourth-generation owner, Norimasa Yamamoto, came back from working in Tokyo in 2004, he switched the brewery’s focus from mass-produced sake to carefully made premium sake. The “KID” line is intended to express the local nature, including their pristine water. And yes, they want to nurture both their sake and young talents as one would nurture one’s own kid.
