Heiwa Sake Shuzo Kid Junmai Daiginjo Japan Nv
Description: | Founded in 1928, Heiwa Shuzo is a distinguished sake brewery located just outside Kainan City in Wakayama, Japan. The brewery's site, originally a temple for over 500 years, now benefits from its valley location surrounded by mountains with high precipitation, providing a constant supply of soft, high-quality spring water—ideal for sake brewing. This exceptional water, known as Koyasan Nansui, flows down from the world heritage site Koyasan temple, enhancing the brewery's sake with its soft and luscious qualities. Heiwa Shuzo gained widespread acclaim both in Japan and internationally for its "kid" brand of sake. The name "kid" combines "kisshu," referring to the Wakayama region, and "fudo," meaning environment, reflecting the sake's playful, bright, and energetic character. Heiwa Shuzo's excellence in sake production has been recognized with the prestigious Brewer of the Year award at the International Wine Challenge (iwc) in both 2019 and 2020, a first for any sake brewery. |
