Gamagi (Yaoshin Shuzo)

This is an Iwakuni food-pairing sake, named after the 'Gamagi' steps at the pier. It is a single expression crafted with a commitment to unfiltered brewing, allowing the powerful umami of the rice to shine through. Founded in 1877, Yaoshin Shuzo's brewery is located on the banks of the Imazu River, a tributary of the Nishiki River. The brand name originates from the era when raw rice was unloaded at the Gamagi steps along this riverbank. Driven by the philosophy that 'life is born from the water's edge,' we avoid filtration with activated carbon to bring out a fresh, rich flavor exactly as it was pressed. It is a food-pairing sake that balances a full-bodied umami with a clean finish. Its character changes between chilled and warm service, ensuring it never becomes tiresome alongside your meals. This bottle encapsulates both the rich climate of Iwakuni and the very origins of our brewery.
