The tips of this Ippon
This brewery is located in Akita Prefecture. Recently, people know there are a lot of good Japanese Sake breweries in Akita. However, in old days, Akita was thought it was not a proper area to brew good Japanese Sake because it was too cool for yeast. The birth of Yeast No.6 changed all. It could brew tasty Japanese Sake in cold areas. The 5th owner of this brewery found Yeast No.6 in 1930. 8th owner, who succeeded the brewery in 2012, decided that the brewery would brew their Japanese Sake only with No.6 yeast. After he had succeeded, he pushed up the brewery higher stage. The brewery originally was famous for brewing high quality Japanese Sake. He keeps on producing innovative products. “Colors” is the brand name which is brewed with only rice that is produced in Akita. 5 labels are listed as “Colors.” The different breeds are used to each bottle. They polish each rice to different ratios to make the most of each charm. This bottle is brewed with “Misato Nishiki,” and polished to 40%. 40% is the ratio for Dai-Ginjo-Shu. But, they don’t say their bottle is Dai-Ginjo-Shu. This is because they want customers to purely enjoy the tastes without any prejudice.
