Toyo Bijin (Sumikawa Shuzojo)
Upon taking a sip, a fruity and floral aroma spreads, flowing into a crisp and clean finish—this is Hagi's local sake, "Toyo Bijin." Its overwhelming umami and clarity captivate anyone who drinks it. Produced by Sumikawa Shuzojo, founded in 1921 in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. Brewed under the concept of "water that has passed through the rice," its flagship Junmai Daiginjo, "Ichiban Matoi," features a rich sweetness balanced with subtle acidity and a sharp finish, achieving an exquisite harmony of sweet, sour, and umami flavors. It is said that the brewery's name was given by the first head in memory of his late wife. A floral aroma and clear umami. This is a beautiful sake born in Hagi, meant to be savored slowly.
