A selection from our range
Chura Sansan Awamori is brewed with 5–15 strains of brown sugar yeast, isolated and developed by Professor Emeritus Nakata Kubo of Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology Junior College. Despite being a relatively new creation, it achieved first place in the Awamori category at the 2014 Autumn National Alcohol Competition, demonstrating its quality and robust flavour. It is defined by a rich aroma, distinctive sweetness, and mellow character. Brewed with food pairing in mind, it carries a light aftertaste that complements its fuller notes. This Awamori can be enjoyed on the rocks, with water, or warmed, making it well suited for relaxed evenings and gatherings. Founded in 1848 in Shuri during the reign of King Shō Tai, Mizuho Shuzo is the oldest existing brewery among the Shuri Sanka. Long tied to the Ryukyu royal family, the distillery continues to protect and preserve the tradition of Ryukyu Awamori while remaining firmly connected to Shuri’s cultural heritage.
Kyokuko Yamahai Cedar Barrel is a unique taru sake in many respects. It is a Junmai Ginjo sake with fine fruit notes and subtle hints of cedar and pepper on the nose.

The sake has a long finish, allowing the delightful taste to linger beautifully.This sake is best served cold in a wine glass
Ninki Daiginjo sake offers an elegant, luxurious aroma and a smooth, mellow texture, opening with a burst of melon and ripe fruit.

Subtle sweetness and a clean, lingering aftertaste leave a lasting impression.Best served chilled to highlight its fruity character and silky mouthfeel.Best served in the special Sophienwald Sake Glass.
Kitakata Episode III Junmai Ginjo is made with the sake rice Gohyakuman-goku and the Utsukushimayume yeast which was locally developed in Fukushima. Due to the microclimate in Kitakata, the rice gets a completely different flavour profile than Niigata, where this rice is widely grown. The result is a vibrant sake with many aromas of exotic fruits such as passion fruit, pineapple and mango. On the pallet, a good balance between sweet notes and refreshing acidity and a clean long finish completes this sake. With unspoken dishes, this is a delicious sake to combine, think of scallops grilled in butter.This sake is best served cold in a white wine glass.
Sekaiitto Momo ZERO is the non-alcoholic version of the popular regular Momo sake. Highly concentrated thick peach juice, particularly flavorful and with a nice balance between the luscious sweet and subtle acidity. This fruit drink is best enjoyed cold or on ice.
