Kuroushi
When speaking of the representative local sake of Wakayama, one must mention Kuroushi from Kainan City. When poured into a cup, the rich umami of the rice rises in a bountiful aroma. It is brewed by Nante Shuzo, founded in Kuroe in 1866. The Kuroe district, where the brewery is located, was once a beautiful inlet; it was even praised in the Man'yoshu poetry anthology as 'Kuroushigata' because a black rock shaped like an ox could be seen from the bay, which became the origin of the sake's name. After the war, the brewery shifted its focus toward quality-first production and now remains dedicated to crafting Junmai sake. With its abundant rice umami and a clean, sharp finish, this is a bottle that stays close to the dining table, pairing perfectly with the seafood of Kishu. We invite you to experience the true prowess of Wakayama's representative local sake for yourself.
