Break some ice with Tamagawa

This is a summer seasonal sake that reminds us to relax and take it easy — there are no strict rules in drinking sake. We love the jasmine flower, mandarin orange and licorice notes, and how both sweet and dry coexist in this bold, fun drink. It’s recommended on the rocks. Keep an ear out for the sound of sake breaking the ice.

Kinoshita Brewing Company

Kinoshita Brewing Company is located way on the north side of Kyoto facing the Sea of Japan. Their brand Tamagawa comes from the very clean stream they are near, with which Japanese people have had a sacred relationship. Kinoshita Brewing Company is famous for having the first foreign national certified brewmaster, Philip Harper from England, who has been referred to as “the wizard of brewing.” His sake has character and depth. It breaks barriers and stretches the boundaries of sake while being authentic and fun. We’ve come to expect wild, funky and delicious discoveries when we taste their sake.
