Fifth-generation president/“toji” (master brewer) Takahiro Nagayama is passionate about his estate grower-producer style sake, allowing him to brew sake that represents his personality and to reach all the people who drink it. Taka’s motto is “Think globally, act locally,” and he uses rice from western Japan to echo this commitment. Taka set out to make sake that could make just as much of an impact as wine, with the tension and minerality to keep people drinking glass after glass.
