"Kikuhime" is a timeless masterpiece that has carved its name into history as a synonym for Yamahai-style brewing. By championing 'Yamahai-shikomi' ahead of the industry and drawing out the umami and acidity of rice to their limits, it has established an unshakable status as the representative of 'manly sake' (otoko-zake).
Its most prominent feature is the overwhelming depth and powerful acidity born from the Yamahai process, which follows the laws of nature by slowly nurturing lactic acid bacteria and yeast. Furthermore, using Yamada Nishiki from the special A-A district of Yokawa, Hyogo, and aging for one to two years creates a flavor profile with layers of mellow aromas reminiscent of nuts and honey, and dense umami suggesting brown sugar. Its quality, honored with numerous international awards, is the very pride of Kikuhime as they continue to pursue the 'truth of sake' without being swayed by trends.
