Kurumazaka

"Kurumazaka" is a brand brewed by Yoshimura Hideo Shoten, utilizing the tradition of Noto-style Yamahai brewing.
Yamahai brewing is a traditional method of making yeast starter, utilizing the natural action of lactic acid bacteria and yeast to produce deep richness, complex acidity, and powerful umami. Inheriting the skills of the Noto style, it features a unique sake quality fused with the climate of Kishu.
When tasted, the umami of rice spreads firmly, and the complex acidity unique to Yamahai brewing tightens the whole. While having deep richness and power, the aftertaste is sharp, demonstrating its true value as a sake served with food.
Especially when served as warm sake, the umami of rice and acidity harmonize, allowing you to enjoy a rich yet sharp taste. It goes excellently with heavily seasoned dishes and fatty fish, increasing depth in combination with a wide range of Japanese food.
It is loved as a unique brand where the climate of Kishu and the tradition of Noto-style Yamahai brewing are fused.
