Brewed in Kochi prefecture in the Shikoku region, this product stands out from the crowd with its special “Yamadanishiki sake rice” used in the production of Suigei sake. The rice is milled and brewed at very low temperatures. This modern brewery which name can be translated to mean “drunken whale” was originally based in Kochi city and expanded to the west of Kochi opening a brewery in Tosa City.
The freshness of the sake Suigei is due to the fact that it trucks in its water from the upper reaches of the Kagami River around Mt. Tosa which is free from iron, manganese and other minerals perfect for the sake brewing process.

Tasting Note
This semi-dry Junmai Daiginjo is an improvement from classic casual Suigei sake. It uses Hiroshima prefecture special Hattannishiki rice that is polished down to 40%. This perfectly balanced sake with acidity and umami at its finest to allow it to pair with white fishlike hirame, red snapper.
