This is the signature sake of Sasaiwai! While technically dry, it has a rich and rounded flavor profile that softens the perception of dryness, creating a beautifully balanced harmony of the five key tastes. It’s a sake that enhances both itself and the dishes it’s paired with. A local favorite, this sake is enjoyed most often in its hometown. Serve it in your favorite cup and at your preferred temperature—it’s incredibly versatile. It pairs exceptionally well with soy-simmered dishes like nitsuke or recipes featuring dashi. A perfect companion for hearty, umami-rich meals!

Sasaiwai Brewery Company

Sasaiwai Brewery was founded in 1907. A true local gem, 90% of its production is consumed within the community, earning it the title of "the sake of sakes" among local brews. The brewery’s motto is to offer sake that we, as local brewers and residents, find delicious right now. All of the staff at Sasaiwai Brewery, from brewers to bottlers to office workers, live locally. For Sasaiwai, the definition of "delicious sake" is one that the people in the local community enjoy — in other words, sake that the staff themselves would drink and savor. Even if their style or flavor differs from current trends, they are dedicated to crafting products that reflect their own proud, authentic tastes.
