Brew Master Saori Kobari Brews this sake 4 times a year. Usake is Unfiltered and unpasteurized sake - Muraka Nama Sake. 

A Faint fruity aroma with fresh taste and clean finish. Very Dry among 4 usake series Kobari Toji use Fune Shibori  to press sake.  Fune Shibori is a traditional method and mainly adopted for premium Sake. Moromi is placed into sake bags and laid in a rectangular box called “fune”

During Sake Trend's interview, Kobari Toji mentioned that Usake has higher acidity applying this traditional Fune Shibori Pressing method.

The Usake Fall sake is “Hiyaoroshi.” Hiyaoroshi style sakes are pasteurized at the end of brewing season, then put to sleep over the warm spring and winter months in the coldest part of the brewery. When the cold (“hiya”) of fall and winter starts to descend (“oroshi”), the sake is bottled and sold without a second pasteurization. This Fall Release is brewed with Fukushima’s native Yume-no-Kaori rice, polished to 60%, fermented with Utsukushima Yume yeast, and spring water from Mt. Adatara. The result is a mild sake with a touch of agedsake aroma. Perfect with Beef Wellington, stews, sausage, cheese, and mushroom-rich dishes.
