Shikisakura
When poured into a glass, it releases a soft, rich aroma. On the palate, it offers a gentle mouthfeel with delicate sweetness and a clean, crisp finish. It is an elegant sake that subtly complements your food. Shikisakura is brewed by Utsunomiya Shuzo, founded in 1871 (Meiji 4). The brewing process utilizes the subsoil water of the Kinu River. The name 'Shikisakura' was originally 'Shiki no Tomo' (Friend of the Four Seasons), but it is said to have been changed in honor of a poem composed by the first generation: 'No friend like the moon or snow, except for the Shikisakura.' Driven by the philosophy that 'to make good sake, one must start with rice cultivation,' they are known to grow their sake rice alongside local farmers in Yanagida-machi. As a representative local sake of Tochigi with numerous awards at domestic and international competitions, it is a true taste of Utsunomiya, nurtured by the local terroir.
