About the brewery : The history of this kura, like that of many sake breweries in Tochigi, is very interesting. It was founded by a family from a group of workers from the distant town of Shiga, the "Oomi Shonin". They first appeared in 1590, when Hideyoshi Toyotomi sent a Daïmyo by the name of Ujisato Gamo from Oomi to Fukushima. He was accompanied by a number of artists, scientists (the shokunin) and merchants, as Hideyoshi Toyotomi had entrusted him with the mission of making the West of Japan more active by creating trade links with the East. Over time, some of the members of this group took up residence in Tochigi and began making sake. A new style was born in the region, based on the techniques of the Oomi scholars and surrounded by secrets known only to the merchants.

Serving suggestions : There are an infinite number of possible pairings for this lively, fresh sake, so it's hard to pinpoint one in particular. Drink at 15°C or cooler.
