Layers of flavor for you to unfold

Brewed using 100% Hyogo Kitanishiki sake rice grown in smaller quantities in the northern areas of Hyogo Prefecture, this sake has quite a few layers to its taste—the most prominent being pear, linden, toasted malt and even honey tones. With prominent umami and a clean finish they call kire, after drinking a glass of this you’ll want to get your hands on more and more!

Kasumi Tsuru

Founded in 1725, Kasumi Tsuru Brewing Company is one of the few breweries that uses an orthodox brewing method known as kimoto and yamahai for every single one of their sake today. This is a labor intensive method that demands high skill and knowledge. The company believes in sake that compliments cooking, and all their products pair excellently with a variety of dishes. The 15 types of D-amino acids produced from the natural lactic acid produced using this method are rumored to have health effects, and in sake they boost the rich, umami flavors this brewery is known for.
