Like a smooth ocean stream

Crafted by a brewery that puts in the extra care and time to ensure their sake is perfect, Mimurosugi “Junmai Daiginjo” was created to be clean and clear. The familiar aroma of white flowers and anise is not overpowering and leads into the minerally textured medium body with ease. Flavor-wise you’ll find this sake has touches of sweet rice confectionery and some mineral water currents.

Imanishi Brewing Company

Established in 1660, Imanishi Brewing Company is located near Omiwa Shrine which looks after brewmasters at the foothills of Mount Miwa. As the mountain itself is considered the god of health, the water flowing from it is said to be spiritual and healing. They only use rice grown with this water, and brew with the same groundwater. Their brand name Mimurosugi comes from Mimuro, an old name for this mountain, and “sugi,” for the abundance of Japanese cedar. As the only brewery left in Miwa, they aim to raise recognition as the sacred place for sake.
