Tatenokawa “Seiryu Stream”
Yamagata prefecture
Clear as mountain water
This junmai daiginjo, brewed from Yamagata prefecture’s Dewasansan rice, is so popular that it’s considered the “backbone” of Tatenokawa Brewing Company. Clean and crisp as a pristine mountain stream, it was inspired by the majesty of Mount Chokai (aka Dewa Fuji), the tallest peak in Yamagata. Refreshing and light, its smoothness and slightly lower ABV also evokes a sense of calm, making it a great pairing for Japanese comfort foods.

Tatenokawa Brewing Company
Who would have thought that a sake brewery founded in 1832 would develop a cutting edge identity hundreds of years later? Tatenokawa’s ambition (achieving 1% rice polishing ratio) and global friendships (Foo Fighters and Phoenix) have gained much attention in the last two decades to go along with a deep respect for their traditional methods and unwavering quality. They even have a playful brand honoring a tabby cat that wandered into their brewery, whom they call Tatenyan. They are one of the few breweries that only produce junmai daiginjo, reaching fans globally with products that will ultimately impress you ultimately with their delicious flavor.
