A new day in Tokushima

Honke Matsuura is a brewery committed to using rice sourced from their home prefecture of Tokushima to create lively sake. This limited-time “nama” (unpasteurized sake), collected immediately after pressing, lives up to that promise, delivering a refreshingly fruity taste with a soft acidity. Subtle rice flavor comes through in the aftertaste for a touch of umami. It’s a gentler, lower-ABV sake compared to some of their other “genshu” (undiluted sake).

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.
