Kikusui
When poured into a cup, it possesses the deep, calm aroma unique to aged sake. With a single sip, a mellow umami spreads gently across the palate, leaving a long finish on the tongue—this is Kikusui, the famous sake of Noshiro City. Brewed by Kikusui Sake Brewery, founded in 1875. The most striking feature of this brewery is undoubtedly its storage facility. They use a Meiji-era brick tunnel, which once served the Ou Main Line, as an aging cellar for their sake. Inside this tunnel, where temperatures remain stable throughout the year, the sake slowly gains depth. The tunnel is also registered as a national tangible cultural property. A deep richness and mellowness nurtured by time. This is a characterful bottle born from the climate and landscape of Noshiro.
