The Fukui Yahei Shoten tradition of brewing sake dates back to the mid-Edo period, over two and a half centuries ago. The name Hagi-no-tsuyu is said to have been bestowed on our brewery by the then-lord of the domain, and derived from the Japanese clovers (hagi) that bloom in abundance on the shores of Lake Biwa. We believe that a truly deilicious sake is something to be savored. We strive to brew Hagi-no-tsuyu as a sake both rich and smooth, with a flavor that can be appreciated more and more with every sip, and a fresh finish so that one never tires of drinking. This sake is a balanced, fresh, and smooth sake with a floral aroma and a clear, crisp finish. It pairs well with Butter sauteed bamboo shoots, Mountain Vegetable Tempura, Sashimi. And other Japanese light taste dishes.
