Online sake brewery study abroad
Brewed with love for the local area!
In the first year of the Ansei era, the company was founded in Yoshida, Toyosato-cho, Inukami-gun, Shiga Prefecture under the order of sake brewing from the lord of the Hikone domain, Ii Tairo. Yoshida, which was called Zenda because of the rich spring water from the Suzuka Mountains, is a region that has been prosperous in rice cultivation since ancient times, producing high-quality Omi rice, and is a region that meets the best conditions for sake brewing, with cold winds blowing from Mt. Ibuki.
The representative brand, ``Choju Kinkame'', got its name from ``Konki Castle'', another name for Hikone Castle. We are particular about the traditional ``Kibukuro Shibori'' method, and we propose sake that offers a variety of flavors by polishing the rice in 10% increments from 20% to 100% (brown rice).
Tonight, let's enjoy comparing three different types of rice with different rice polishing ratios of 20%.♪
"Longevity Golden Pigeon Blue 40, Pasteurized", "Longevity Golden Pigeon Green 60, Pasteurized", "Longevity Golden Pigeon White 80, Pasteurized"3 bottles (180ml each) to compare,Special seasonal side dishes from “Kyoto Yuka Gion” directly managed by the breweryWe will deliver it to you!

●Longevity Kinko Ai 40 Pasteurized 180ml
It ranks among the highest in Shiga prefecture's sake-tasting association, and is popular as an easy-to-drink Junmai Daiginjo, with its gorgeous aroma and delicate yet powerful taste unique to Junmai Daiginjo.
●Longevity Kinka Green 60 Pasteurized 180ml
``Choju Kinko Midori 60'', which is made using the contract-grown rice ``Tamaei'', is the representative sake of Okamura Honke's dry sake, and is a sake with a gentle aroma and a refreshing, dry taste.
●Choshu Kinko White 80 Pasteurized 180ml
This is a low-refined junmai sake that does not polish the rice too much, so you can feel the flavor of the rice, and it is sweet and refreshing.
●Directly managed by the brewery, Yuki Gion special seasonal side dishes
This is a product from "Yuka Gion" in Kyoto. In 2009, it opened as a public izakaya in Gion, Kyoto as a directly managed store of Okamura Honke. Enjoy sake with dishes prepared by the manager who trained at a long-established Japanese restaurant in Kyoto.
