Special selected grade “A” Yamada Nishiki rice is used in the traditional method. Freshness and a rich taste make this sake very special.
The rice is 100% Yamada Nishiki, premium brewer’s rice grown in Hyogo. It’s called as the King of brewing rice among more than a thousand kinds of brewer’s rice. Sawanotsuru has a great relationship with JITSURAKU area (the village name) where regarded as a rank-A sector of producing “Yamada Nishiki”.
NADA owes its intrinsic prominence in brewing to Miya Spring Water from the Rokko Mountains. That means heaven-sent water in Japanese. It makes the sake taste smooth and strong (dry). It is the perfect complement to about 300 years of Sawanotsuru brewing tradition. Jitsuraku is brewed by the age-old Kimoto brewing method that draws out the natural full-bodied flavors of the rice leaving a distinguished fruity aroma and refreshing aftertaste.
