“Kijoshu” is a very special brew made with some of the brewing water replaced with finished sake. Made with Hakkaisan’s signature snowmelt brewing water, local sake rice and extra amounts of carefully made koji, the result is a luxurious, sweet and ageable beverage fitting as a dessert and night cap. Enjoy it over ice cream, hard and aged cheese, dried fruits, fresh fruit with cream, chocolate and even pound cake.

Actual vintage year may differ from product image shown.

“Hakkaisan ‘Kijoshu’ is a sour-sweet dessert sake with a luscious mouthfeel. While it can be drunk straight, I prefer it on the rocks with a splash of seltzer water to lighten it up.”
