A princess warrior at your table

Imagine inviting a strong, warrior princess to your table — that’s what this sake is like. The trident logo is an ode to the founder who, as part of the samurai class, would carry a trident spear. The lighter texture and restrained boldness pairs well with creamy pasta, and hearty vegetables grilled with oil. Enjoy in a ceramic cup, or in a wine glass to highlight the delicate aroma.

Sogen Brewing Company

Tucked away at the tip of Ishikawa’s Noto Peninsula, Sogen Brewing Company has existed in the rural town of Suzu since 1768. Founded by the Hatakeyama samurai clan, they are of noble descent and were even visited by the crown prince in 2018. With a focus on being food friendly and staying true to their heritage, they are driven by the powerful flavors of rice and umami and make sake for the fishermen and farmers in the area. A seasoned veteran with more than 60 years of experience, their brewmaster pours his soul into making a brew that truly represents their home and history.
