[Horai Uncensored Sake Pure rice unfiltered sake】
Pure rice sake with soul from our founding
This is a raw sake made by aging freshly pressed pure rice sake in a cellar for six months.
The flavor of the rice is concentrated and expressed directly, without carbon filtration or adding water.
When the Second Sino-Japanese War broke out in the Meiji era, rice for sake brewing became more important than military use, and sake production was forced to decline due to extreme shortages of materials.
This led to the bad practice of sake breweries diluting sake with water before wholesale to liquor stores, and liquor stores also diluting it with water before selling it to customers. This sake was so thin that goldfish could swim in it, and it came to be called " goldfish sake . "
Even in such times, Watanabe Ichiro, the sixth generation head of Watanabe Sake Brewery, continued to make sake without ever diluting it.
This sake is a pure rice sake that dates back to the company's founding, adhering to the family motto: "Even if the world is in turmoil, we must always brew honest, straightforward sake."
