October's sake bundle features the 2nd of 3 new breweries we'll be launching from September to November! Introducing the first brewery from the Miyagi prefecture in our portfolio - Zao.
Zao Shuzo is a sake brewery founded in 1873. The blessings of the land, such as subsoil water from the Zao Mountain Range and the cold wind from the Zao downwind help create their delicous sake. The brewery's current annual saké production is 800 koku. Known for brands such as "Zao" and "Zao Noboriryu," the brewery has been awarded Gold Prizes 29 times at the Annual Japan Saké Awards. Based on this number of awards, that ranks Zao Shuzo 11th nationwide.
Balance of sweetness and acidity. It is a refreshing sake that goes well with appetizers like ham, carpaccio and salad. To be drunk chilled like Champagne. Served on first class of ANA.
Delicious tasting sparkling sake. The mineral rich water in Hida, Gifu combines very well with the bubbles to creates a very pleasant flavour.

This special sake rice is combined with Shizuku (drip sake) which is made from only drops by gravity from moromi (fermentation mush) in a hanged filter bag.
Packed in a beautiful wooden box, this Shizuku sake has an elegant fragrance and feminine, delicate taste. Fruity and floral with notes of peach, peach and lychee. Excellent balance between sweetness and acidity. It will leave you a clear, pleasant afterglow like melting-snow water with the silky, smooth superior texture.
