The first SAKEMARU ORIGINAL edition which is only available in SAKEMARU. We discuss with the brewery and create this Sake from the scratch!!

It's produced by the rare rice Yamasake No.4 for the first time in Shichisui. Transparency and juiciness are the most characteristic, like juicy pink grapefruits.

The aroma is refreshingly sour, and the sweetness and Umami are exceptionally transparent, like soaking into the tongue. By directly bottling freshly squeezed Sake as it is, we promise a mysterious experience that SPEC cannot describe.


Kotora Brand

There were the seven finest water sources in Utsunomiya, where Toraya Honten locates. Toraya Honten started brewing by using one of the water sources, named 虹乃井 Nijinoi.
And, 七水 Shichisui, which is the main brand of 虎屋本店 Toraya Honten, is currently highly appreciated all around the world and achieved so many awards every year. They produce so many labels, but each of them has the characteristic.

The variety of tastes is just like a rainbow, and the brewmaster 天満屋 Tenmaya is the Sake magician. This original brand 虹虎 KOTORA stands for their water source, the magical taste like a rainbow designed by the brewmaster, and the brewery name.

*The wooden plate is called 絵馬 Ema which usually Japanese people write the wishes and hang in the shrine. Shichisui provides their Sake to Futaaraiyama Shrine 二荒山神社. 


SAKEMARU ORIGINALS

We provide an experience that goes beyond "Appreciation". It is a brand that conveys Sake to the world, which can be said to be a tradition and art that originated in Japan. In cooperation with Sake breweries with technical capabilities and a firm philosophy all over Japan, SAKEMARU will combine it with the knowledge of Sake that can be placed in the world market, further refining the Sake brewery's work, and sublimate it into a masterpiece.
