Asahitaka

When poured into a cup, a fresh aroma reminiscent of freshly pressed sake and a clean umami flavor gently spread—this is Asahitaka, a local sake you can only encounter in Yamagata. It is brewed by Takagi Shuzo of Murayama City, famous for the legendary sake "Juyondai." Asahitaka is a limited-distribution brand produced by Takagi Shuzo specifically for the prefecture, making it primarily available only within Yamagata. Brewed with the reliable techniques used to create Juyondai, this namachozoshushu (freshly pasteurized sake) is light and easy to drink, having been loved locally for a long time. A precious bottle that allows you to enjoy the prowess of a renowned brewery in an unpretentious, everyday setting. It is the kind of exciting cup you'll definitely want to seek out when visiting Yamagata.
