SAKE OF THE MONTH

 Otokoyama Sushi Booster Tokubetsu Junmai is crafted by Otokoyama Brewery in Asahikawa, Hokkaido, known for its high-quality sake brewed in spring water. Established in 1977, Otokoyama was the first sake producer to win the Monde Selection Award and has since garnered numerous gold medals at domestic and international competitions. This sake is deeply rooted in Hokkaido’s brewing tradition.  

 Designed specifically for sushi, the Sushi Booster Tokubetsu Junmai was developed with input from around 50 sushi chefs through extensive blind tastings. The result is a sake that is clean and crisp with a light, refreshing, and sharp profile, while retaining the subtle sweetness of the rice. It pairs excellently with sashimi and sushi, and is praised for its balance, moderate fruitiness, and compatibility with vinegared rice.
