Rairaku (Ibaraki Shuzo)

"Friends come from afar" — A food-pairing sake that accompanies the bounties of the Akashi sea. Ibaraki Shuzo, the brewer of Rairaku, is an Akashi brewery founded in 1848. The name 'Rairaku' is derived from a passage in the Analects of Confucius: 'Is it not a delight to have friends coming from afar?' Located in the Nishinada sake-brewing district facing the Harima-nada Sea, they have single-mindedly pursued sake production that pairs well with local flavors such as Akashi Tamago (rolled omelet), Akashi sea bream, and Akashi octopus. Their crisp, dry profile is a bottle that truly brings joy to the dining table. It is a flavor worthy of entertaining even friends from distant lands. Please enjoy this local sake, nurtured by the climate of Akashi, alongside the treasures of the sea, with nearly two hundred years of history.
