“Established in 1832 (Tempo 3), this masterpiece is named after Tatenokawa Brewery’s first-generation kura master, Heishirō. Nearly a century has passed since Yamada Nishiki was born in 1923, yet no grain has emerged that surpasses it as the ‘king of sake rice.’ From a desire to ‘brew a sake bearing Heishirō’s name using the rice still recognized as the best in the history of sake culture, and to pass on our founding roots into the future,’ the Junmai Daiginjo Shodai Heishirō was created.
A refined sake with a modest yet high-quality presence and deeply satisfying natural deliciousness—ideal for milestone celebrations or as a gift for someone special.”
