This is a popular sister brand of "Akitora" Sake, called "Niwatsumi." It's named after the water that accumulates and flows on the ground after rainfall. The Sake has a pleasant, fruity aroma, a soft sweetness, and a refined aftertaste. Its acidity provides a nice contrast and makes it easy to drink.Compared to their other Junmai Daiginjo, this Sake is lighter and welcome all kind of Sake lovers.
They are a brewery that stays true to their terroir. Terroir is a French term that refers to the unique natural environment where a product, such as wine, coffee, or sake, is made. It includes factors like climate, soil, water, and local geography, all of which influence the final taste and character of the product. In their hometown of Kochi, this brewery is loved by locals and well-known by almost everyone. Their sake gives you a gentle, comforting feeling—gentle, mild, and simply a pleasure to drink. When you want to sit back and enjoy a good sake, this is the one. Whenever I feel tired, I find myself reaching for Akitora, and the faces of the brewers come to mind.
