Grab life by the horns

With a name like “Bull Rider” you expect something bold. This sake delivers. Bursting with an aroma of tropical fruits and orange blossom, Bull Rider charges out with round, juicy goodness, then hones in with a sharp acidity. This magnificent mix has all the excitement of rodeo, and finishes cool like a cowboy after a wild ride. If you like things with a little more oomph, this one’s for you.

Ryujin Brewing Company

At the time of the civil wars in 15th century, a warlord from this province found a source of water great for making sake and became a sake brewer. Ryujin’s underground water is very soft, lending to their brewers the power to draw out the hidden flavors in their rice. Their aim is to create flavorful, mellow, high quality sake that warms the heart upon drinking. They like to combine their traditional skills and methods with the brewer’s heart. To this end, they work hard to improve their skills every day to work towards the next challenge, and brew excellent beer in the off season.
