De brouwerij die al in 1716 opgericht is staat inmiddels onder leiding van zijn 19e president, Joji Yusa. Okunomatsu is toegewijd aan het produceren van sake die zowel van hoge kwaliteit als betaalbaar is. Ze bereiken dit door het gebruik van traditionele en nieuw ontwikkelde technieken, waarbij ze het beste combineren van historische kennis en moderne innovaties. De brouwerij die wereldfaam heeft verworven met hun fantastische sake heeft een uniek flesdesign. Je kunt het speciale flesontwerp herkennen door de karakteristieke schouderlijn en iets slankere en hogere vorm dan gangbare sakeflessen.

Zenmai Ginjo is a 100%
rice Ginjo which is very special. Ginjo means that the sake is specially brewed
with a characteristic lot of fruit and floral notes in the nose and on the
pallet. A small amount of brewer's alcohol has been added, not to increase the
amount of sake. In Ginjo, the alcohol is added because certain flavours in rice
dissolve better in alcohol than in water. So the sake gets extra flavour from
this addition. Brewer's alcohol is usually a distillate made from sugar cane,
grain or potato, but with this sake it is rice.
A delicious accessible sake with fine red fruit, apple and melon in the nose
and on the pallet. The taste is formidable with a nice bite and a pleasant
aftertaste.
