ABOUT
The "Ohanasake" has been awarded the prestigious Gold Award at Kura Master 2023! Crafted with exceptional care and using rare techniques, "Ohanasake" embodies rarity and excellence in every sip.

Delight your senses with a refreshing and mellow aroma, created using the elusive flower yeast extracted from rare climbing rose flowers. This unique yeast infuses the sake with a beautiful rose pink hue, evoking the essence of a serene rose garden. This yeast is a precious and scarce resource, exclusively permitted for use within the Tokyo University of Agriculture's Hana Yeast Research Group.

Experience the elegance of "Ohanasake" with its low-alcohol content and refined taste, perfect for connoisseurs and newcomers alike. Its gentle flavor profile makes it an ideal choice for the discerning palate and those seeking a smoother sake experience.

Indulge in the health benefits of "Ohanasake," made with pesticide-free ancient rice sourced from the local Hyuga Tanaka Farm. This ancient rice variety, known as black rice-紫黒苑, is rich in polyphenols, minerals, and vitamins, offering a nourishing and rejuvenating experience with every sip.

Experience the epitome of rare sake craftsmanship with "Ohanasake" - a true testament to tradition, innovation, and the art of sake brewing.


BREWERY*
Founded in 1912 (first year of Taisho), Kikkawa once made rich and dry styled sake. The seventh generation chief brewer Masanori Mizuno Toji took over in 2012 changing focus to delicate, complex and Ginjo in style sake. At the same time, he’s using ancient acid production techniques, very cold fermentation and hardly any polish to the high quality rice.
