Product Description

This sake is crafted using the traditional "Edo-kaeri" technique, resulting in a gentle, sweet-and-tart flavor. True to its name, it evokes a sense of nostalgia, reminiscent of Senkin's sake from 20 years ago. The main rice varieties are Omachi (80%) and Yamada Nishiki (20%), lending a soft, fruity character. The sake has a light, airy texture with a subtle effervescence, while a fresh acidity gradually unfolds, providing a pleasant accent. The finish is softly fragrant, with hints of citrus that linger gently on the palate. Unlike Senkin's "Modern" or "Classic" styles, this sake offers a unique new expression of the brewery's signature character.

Brewery introduction

SENKIN inc.

Located in Ogi City, Saga Prefecture, the brewery was revived in 2006 after the new owners took over a sake brewery that had gone out of business, along with its original brand name. Master brewer Yamamoto, known for creating Kikutaka, joined the founding team to begin a new chapter of sake making. Company president Mr. Kusaka originally worked in television production, creating programs related to agriculture and the economy. Through this experience, he became fascinated by the potential and allure of Japanese sake, and devoted himself to becoming a brewer. The brewery building was severely damaged and required extensive renovation - from replacing the roof to fully refurbishing the interior. Brewing equipment had to be assembled from scratch, with some tanks kindly passed on from other breweries. Step by step, the team prepared for production. Despite setbacks such as flooding of the koji room caused by heavy rains in August, they persevered and established a solid brewing environment. In December 2019, the first sake under the name Koeigiku was finally released, marking the rebirth of the brand.
