Akitora
A soft and flavorful Tosa sake that carries the name of a Sengoku-period warlord. 'Akitora' is a Japanese sake brewed by Arimitsu Sake Brewery in Aki City. In this small brewery founded in 1903, the brand name is inspired by Aki Kunitora, a warlord who ruled the eastern part of the prefecture during the Warring States period. They continue to cherish traditional craftsmanship, such as using well water from near the Akano River—an area famous for sweetfish (ayu)—for brewing and slowly pressing the sake in wooden vats. Among Tosa sakes that often compete on sharpness alone, Akitora is a food-pairing sake characterized by its fullness and softness. Its light acidity and gentle umami subtly complement various dishes. This is a bottle where you can feel the warmth of handmade production, made possible only by such a small brewery.
