Narutotai “Ginjo” Nama Genshu Black
Tokushima prefecture
A rarer version of a classic
If you love Narutotai “Ginjo” Nama Genshu, then you must try the seasonal, limited quantity “Black” sake, which is an unfined version called “muroka.” It means it’s even more untouched, eliminating the post-pressing fining process while preserving the vibrant flavor. Still in the iconic aluminum can, which seals the freshness inside, “Black” brings you even closer to the freshly pressed sake you can only enjoy at the brewery.

Honke Matsuura
Founded back in 1804, Honke Matsuura traces the roots of its founder back to a pirate group, the Matsuura Party. Fortunately for us the founder turned to sake making, inspired by the luscious lotus fields, elegant flocks of storks and Yamadanishiki rice crop that grows on the slopes of the nearby Sanuki Mountains. These mountains also provide the water used for brewing, so each sip you take is a taste of the local environment. Honke Matsuura supports its local community by using rice from the surrounding Tokushima Prefecture and is committed to the health and happiness of its brewers.
