Aged and delicious

This sake uses Gohyakumangoku sake rice, which is known for leaner flavors. The sake is aged to give it an amber color with honey notes. Warming it up will bring forward some ume fruit notes; chilled, you can enjoy it like a savory dessert. To make this full-bodied, low-ABV sake, they use twice as much rice as they normally would. Every vintage is different — grab this while you can!

Masuda Tokubee Shoten

Founded in 1675, Masuda Tokubee Shoten is one of the oldest breweries in the Fushimi region of Kyoto prefecture. Water from Fushimi is often found enshrined for their healing properties, and has the perfect amount of minerals to supply a healthy, balanced fermentation. Masuda Tokubee Shoten is known for creating the first nigori sake in 1964 — a version that is cloudy and sparkling — and for having one of the oldest aged sake. The current 14th-generation owner is an international leader in representing what is inherently and historically Japanese while making sure it is in harmony with the rest of the world.
