Sogen
There is a local sake brewed amidst the sea breezes of Suzu City, at the very tip of the Noto Peninsula. It is "Sogen," preserved by breweries with deep ties to the Noto Toji. Sogen Sake Brewery was founded in 1768. As a brewery considered the birthplace of the Noto Toji—one of Japan's four great brewing traditions—master brewers still demonstrate their skills here today. An interesting feature is the aging site: they purchased an abandoned tunnel from the former Noto Railway and utilize approximately 80 meters of its center as a storage cellar. Within the darkness, kept at a constant 12 degrees Celsius throughout the year, the sake gradually loses its harshness and develops a mellow, profound character. With a smooth and full-bodied flavor nurtured by the tunnel, this is a pride of Okunoto—a sake that embodies the very climate and history of Noto in every glass.
