About the brewery : Kaetsu Shuzo was originally created in 1880 in Hukushima Prefecture, then transferred to Niigata in 1886. Niigata Prefecture faces the Sea of Japan, and has a continental climate with very hot summers and cold, snowy winters. The brewery is located in the town of Aga-machi, where the Agano and Tokonami rivers meet. It is also surrounded by numerous mountains. This area is home to one of the noblest rice varieties, 'Sakamaï' (rice used to make sake). The quality of the water is also excellent, with natural springs in the vicinity providing pure, fresh water. An excellent sake region.
Serving suggestions : A true tasting sake, to be enjoyed at any time with dried fruit or chocolate, for example. With strong cheeses or a fruit tart, it will surprise connoisseurs !
