"Ozasaya Taketsuru" is a series of unfiltered Junmai Genshu (undiluted sake) brewed by Taketsuru Shuzo using the traditional Kimoto style, claiming the brewery's store name "Ozasaya" as a special brand.
Brewed using traditional "wooden buckets" since 2009, it most strongly expresses the technology and philosophy of Taketsuru Shuzo, which revived the authentic Kimoto brewing style of Nada in Hiroshima Prefecture for the first time. It is characterized by the powerful taste of concentrated rice umami unique to unfiltered Junmai Genshu, and the complex and deep acidity produced by Kimoto brewing.
It is a brand that can be said to be the true value of Taketsuru Shuzo, which is evaluated as the pinnacle of Junmai sake that is delicious when warmed, and embodies the brewery's philosophy of "making food taste better," being a deep mealtime sake that accompanies any dish.
