Dry and delightful
The series name “Jozen” comes from Chinese philosopher Laozi’s saying about how water benefits all things and doesn’t compete, yet has the ultimate power for steady change and strength. Jozen “White” perfectly expresses this philosophy using extremely pristine, untreated snowmelt water for brewing that has been naturally filtered in the soil over 50 years. Soft and gentle yet light and dry, this sake is true to the Niigata style.
