Denshu

When mentioning Aomori local sake, many people would likely bring up this name first. This is 'Denshu,' brewed by Nishida Sake Brewery. In the character '田' (ta), there is a deep affection for the rice paddies where the rice grows. True to its name, they have been committed to crafting Junmai sake that brings out the umami of the rice, without using any brewing alcohol or added sugars. Their journey into handcrafted Junmai sake began in 1970. Following their selection as number one in a magazine's 'Delicious Sake Contest' in 1981, their name spread throughout the country. Due to its difficulty to obtain, it is sometimes referred to as a 'phantom sake.' It is a representative bottle of Aomori, featuring an expanding richness of rice umami.
