This sake is brewed using the traditional kimoto method, one of the classic techniques from the Edo period. It's a rich and robust sake with both pronounced sweetness and acidity. Crafted to recreate the flavor of Genroku-era sake based on brewing methods found in historical documents, it features an unusually low polishing ratio—close to 90%. The aroma is reminiscent of freshly pounded mochi, offering a deep, earthy richness. Rather than being elegant or refined, it has a rustic, unpretentious character—a sake with the strength and spirit of a samurai. It’s not made for glamorous parties, but instead for quiet moments on a porch or out in nature, where you can sip slowly, let your thoughts drift, and simply enjoy getting a little buzzed without overthinking it.

Ozawa Sake Brewery Company

Ozawa Sake Brewery Company

Tokyo

Founded in 1702, Ozawa Brewery's sake brand "Sawanoi" derives its name from the village of "Sawai," where abundant water flows like a marsh. The brewery draws its water for brewing from deep within a cave carved into the bedrock of the Chichibu old bedrock layer. The surrounding mountains, lush greenery, and pristine air of Okutama, along with carefully selected rice and refined craftsmanship, are all brought together to create each drop of exquisite sake. It is the brewery's creed to dedicate wholehearted sincerity and diligent effort from all employees to craft each drop of sake. Their goal is to produce sake that allows customers to feel the breath of nature in Okutama as they enjoy their drink.​
