Bold sake for bold people

This sake was brewed with local flavor in mind. The brewers use Fusakogane rice right from the local Chiba Prefecture, but they are sure to polish a little less than normal, which emboldens the rice flavor and makes for a beefier umami. This spirited brew has taken home a gold medal in the 2016 Kan Sake Award (budget warm category) and the 2018 Kan Sake Award (budget hot category).
