The perfect pairing of bold and sweet

Katsuyama has its roots in brewing sake for feudal lords, including a renowned samurai, Date Masamune. Now, the brewerys lord-worthy range of sake includes this expert junmai ginjo. It is slightly heavier and drier, which mixes to create a bold flavor, and just a hint of sweetness. Next time youre pouring a glass of the Katsuyama “Ken,” remember to make a toast to the lords of old.
