Ever since sake became available to commoners in the Edo Period (1603-1868), breweries have been naming themselves Otokoyama, after one of the first and most popular breweries of the time. The name, synonymous with sake excellence, indicates the high standards the brewers set for themselves. At this Yamagata brewery, nature is revered and respected, from the prefecture’s pristine water and clean air, down to the koji and yeast used in brewing. Their sake, marked by a mild yet deep flavor that finishes clean and dry, is the kind you’ll never get tired of drinking.
