This is a pure sake made from the high quality rice variety known as Fukuoka Yume Ikkon, amidst the natural beauty of the Tsukushi Plains in the Yame Region. Silvery, crystal clear glow from this sake, with aromas of damp slate, apricot skins and white flowers. It tastes fresh and spring-like, with loads of honeysuckle and other white flowers, and some white peach. Well-balanced with a slight bitter almond finish.
Kitaya Description
The three Japanese characters within the word “Kitaya” read “Joy”, “Many”, “Homes”, and to this day represent Kitaya’s philosophy of “Spreading Joy, One Sake at a Time”. Also, because founder Saikichi Kinoshita was passionate about brewing he employed himself as the chief brewer, the family rule that “The Owner should brew the Sake” has been passed down through the generations.
