This sake is made using 100% of the revival of the legendary sake rice “Shinriki” and is specially prepared for long-term aging, with three times the amount of koji used. It matures as intended, with a rich, mellow, and wonderfully sweet aroma, reminiscent of ripe figs.
Brewery: Honda Shoten Established in 1921. Located in Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture, where the king of sake rice, Yamada Nishiki, is grown, the brewery brews sake with the motto “rice sake tastes like rice” and aims to bring out the best in the flavor of rice. “Ryu-riki” products are made using only rice suitable for sake brewing, and in 2008, their “Daiginjo Kome no Sasayaki” won the world’s highest gold medal at a contest in the United States. They are confident in the quality of their aged sake.
