Tokiichi

Tokiichi is Unkai Shuzo's pinnacle daiginjo, named after master brewer Tokiichi Matsumoto who brings over 50 years of experience. This sake crystallizes the brewer's exceptional skill and experience—a craftsman who received the "Contemporary Master Craftsman" title from the Minister of Labour and was also awarded the Medal with Yellow Ribbon.
Employing the traditional "tsurushi-shibori" (hanging press) method, where drops fall naturally by gravity alone, this luxurious pressing technique achieves an impeccably clear flavor free of off-notes. With an astonishing track record of consecutive Gold Awards at the National New Sake Appraisal, it demonstrates outstanding quality and consistency.
Brewed with Aya spring water, selected as one of Japan's 100 Best Waters, and carefully chosen sake rice polished to its limits, it features an exquisite balance of elegant ginjo aroma and a delicate yet profound flavor. Presented in a special wooden box, it carries a refined dignity befitting special occasions and is highly regarded as a premium gift.
