Ura-Gasanryu “Shoka”
Yamagata prefecture
Call forth the power of the Earth
When people become disconnected from nature they forget the true power of the Earth. Ura-Gasanryu Syoka is brewed using natures’s best, and embodies the ever flowing power of the world. If you ever feel your earthly connection waning, simply take a sip of this sake. Its full, round flavor with hints of green grape and bamboo will bring you back to your roots, followed up by a long clean finish as you’re born anew.

Shindo Brewing Company
Shindo has been brewing a local but famous brand “Fukutsuru” for the last 10 generations. This new brand “Gasanryu” was invented from an idea of going back to the original. They rebuilt the entire process to make truly authentic sake for sake lovers by taking harvest of rice to brewing all in-house. “Gasanryu” is limited in availability, most of them are only consumed locally.
