Kariho

As you bring the cup to your lips, a clean aroma greets you. With a single sip, a sophisticated umami spreads gently, finishing with a crisp, dry note. A reliable food-pairing sake that enhances the flavors of your meal—this is the renowned sake from Daisen City, Kariho. Brewed by the Kariho Brewery, founded in 1913 (Taisho 2). They continue to uphold the laborious traditional method of pressing each batch individually using the original 'Sakafune' (sake vats) that remain in the brewery. The name of their flagship brand, 'Rokushu,' is derived from the six sake vats preserved in the brewery. Its specialty lies in the powerful yet clear umami produced by the Yamahai brewing process. The name itself was inspired by the very first poem in the Hyakunin Isshu (collection of one hundred poems). Its dry and crisp flavor pairs exceptionally well with Japanese cuisine. It is a highly skilled Akita sake with a large following across the nation.
