Nama Honjozo Unpasteurized Sake 720ml

This fresh-pressed Honjozo sake is crafted in Azumino, Nagano, an area known for its pure, natural water from the Northern Alps. Made with locally grown Miyamanishiki and Hitogokochi sake rice, it embodies a vibrant, full-bodied character with a crisp and refreshing finish. As a "Muroka Nama Genshu," it remains unfiltered, unpasteurized, and undiluted, preserving its intense umami and lively aroma.  

Perfectly balanced, it pairs well with grilled meats, sashimi, and rich Japanese dishes. Best enjoyed chilled to fully experience its bold and dynamic flavors.  

This sake reflects over 210 years of brewing tradition in Azumino, where pristine snowmelt water and carefully cultivated rice create an exceptional, authentic Japanese sake experience.
