Wakamusume (Shintani Shuzo)

This is a delicate and transparently clear sake brewed by Yamaguchi Prefecture's only female Toji (master brewer). It has gained a reputation for its fruity and approachable taste. Produced by Shintani Shuzo, a small family-run brewery in Tokuji, Yamaguchi City. The Toji, Fumiko Shintani, who transitioned from being a nurse, carefully brews small batches entirely by hand. In 2020, the brewery drew significant attention after winning a gold medal in the Junmai category at 'KURA MASTER' held in Paris. It is a gorgeous and easy-to-drink bottle, highly recommended even for those not very familiar with sake. Enjoying it chilled in a glass further enhances its fruit-like aroma. It is packed with the charm of a new local sake from Yamaguchi, nurtured with care by a husband-and-wife team.
