Toko
As you tilt the sake cup, a mellow and full-bodied umami slowly spreads across your palate—this is Toko, an exquisite sake brewed by a long-established brewery in Yonezawa. The producer, Kojima Sohonten, is a brewery with over 400 years of history, said to have been founded in 1597 during the Keicho era of the Azuchi-Momoyama period. It once served as the official brewery for the Uesugi clan of the Yonezawa Domain. The name 'Toko' is said to be inspired by the direction where the morning sun rises, east of Yonezawa Castle. In recent years, it has won numerous awards at domestic and international competitions, expanding its presence worldwide. At the 'Toko Sake Brewery' adjacent to the brewery, you can experience the history of sake brewing. Please enjoy a profound cup that stays close to the food and history of Yonezawa.
