Chiyonosono Sake Sacred Power Junmai Gingo Japan NV
Description: | Chiyonosono Brewery, founded in 1896 and located on the southernmost island of Kyushu in Kumamoto, is known as the Junmai expert. After World War II, Chiyonosono became the first brewery to stop adding distilled alcohol to its sake, pioneering the popular Junmai category. Originally a rice wholesaler, the brewery has deep expertise in rice cultivation and access to heirloom strains, allowing them to brew sake with distinctive rice textures and aromas. Kyushu, a region known for its blend of Asian and European cuisine, historic architecture, and unique culture, is home to this innovative brewery. The future of Chiyonosono looks bright, as Yuri Honda, the daughter of the current brewery president, is already making waves in the sake community, ready to carry forward the brewery's legacy of creating forward-thinking yet approachable sake. Under the guidance of Toji (master brewer) Yoshihiro Inaba, Chiyonosono continues to thrive. |
