Wakayama prefecture
This is the cloudy version of Heiwa “Tsuruume” Kanjuku, a flavored sake from Wakayama, a prefecture renowned for its high-quality fruits. Made with real peach paste and “umeshu” (plum wine), this sweet, slightly tart sake is coarsely filtered, providing more mouthfeel. It’s a nectar-like beverage that’s a natural companion to desserts, and can even be used as an ice cream topping, sorbet ingredient or cocktail component. Have fun with it!

Opposites attract, so why not try a spicy snack with umeshu (plum wine)? For sake ware, we recommend vessels that work well for chilled sake.

1928 is when a sake-loving gentleman who married into the family established the brewery where it was originally a temple. After the hiatus during World War II, the company was renamed “Heiwa” meaning peace and harmony. When the current fourth generation owner Norimasa Yamamoto came back from working in Tokyo in 2004, he switched the brewery’s focus from mass-produced sake to carefully made premium sake. The KID line is intended to express the local nature, including their pristine water. And yes, they want to nurture both their sake and young talents as if you would nurture your own kid.
