Minato Tsuchizaki “Harbor” Yamahai Nama Genshu
Akita prefecture
Reward yourself after a long day’s work
Because of the brewery’s close relationship with the harbor and fishermen, they vowed to continue to provide this flavorful sake for the community at a reasonable price. That is why they sell this as “futsushu” (table sake) in Japan, even though it actually fulfills premium honjozo category requirements. The deep flavors and balanced sweetness are meant to provide relief to your hard day, and warmed up, will relax your soul.
