"Amanosake" is a brand that conveys the weight of history, reviving the tradition of "Soboshu" (temple sake) that has continued from the medieval period in Kawachinagano, Osaka.
During the Muromachi period, this sake brewed by monks at Amanosan Kongo-ji Temple was praised as the "best sake in the world" for its rich and powerful flavor, and was deeply loved by the rulers of the time, such as Nobunaga and Hideyoshi. Although it once ceased in the Edo period, Saijo successfully revived it through extensive research of ancient documents and modern brewing techniques.
Of particular note is its rich body, which brings out the umami and sweetness of the rice to the extreme. Positioned at the opposite pole of the "Tanrei" (dry and crisp) style predominant in modern sake, its mellow, deep richness balanced by firm acidity is full of romance, inviting drinkers to a Muromachi-period banquet.
As a representative historical sake of Osaka, it is a drop that continues to represent the origins of Japanese sake along with local pride.
