Sen no Rikyu (Rikyu-gura)

Sakai is the birthplace of Sen no Rikyu, the great master of the tea ceremony. This local sake has revived a brewing tradition that had long been lost in that very land. During the Meiji era, Sakai was a prominent sake district with about 100 breweries, but that number eventually dwindled until they all disappeared. In 2014, after 44 years, Rikyu-gura brought the local sake of Sakai back to life. Brewed using pure underground water from the Kongo Mountain Range and Yamada Nishiki rice from Hyogo, this Junmai Ginjo offers a clean and elegant taste worthy of the name Rikyu. It is a bottle that has restored the pride of the town. Savor this revived cup deeply. It is a sake you will want to enjoy while reflecting on the history of Sakai, the sacred ground of the tea ceremony.
