Hokusetsu

Hokusetsu is the flagship brand that most purely embodies the spirit of Hokusetsu Shuzo. Aiming for harmony between 'Sado's nature, water, rice, and people,' it boasts a diverse lineup from traditional Daiginjo to innovative products using centrifugal separators.
In particular, 'Daiginjo YK35' is an ultimate bottle created by polishing Yamada Nishiki, a variety of rice suitable for sake brewing, to 35% and slowly fermenting it at low temperatures for a long time. The mellow aroma like pear or melon and the throat-feel as smooth as water give an impact enough to overturn the concept of sake. It is a brand that has firmly established its position as 'World's Hokusetsu,' having both a dignified beauty nurtured in Sado's severe winter and world-standard quality.
