”Kokonoe Saika” Creating sharp tasting vinegar and ”sake”

Putting their name on the label

”Magoichi Saika”――。
Magoichi Saika was the most skilled gunman during the Sengoku period who was also the leader of a gun mercenary group called the Saika group.

The owner of Kokonoe Saika, Saika, is a descendent of the Saika group, and the sake he makes carries that name. By naming it ”Saika”, it is an expression of his determination take responsibility for the taste.

Started from making vinegar

”Kokonoe Saika” started from manufacturing vinegar. They started vinegar manufacturing in 1908, and from then sought quality ingredients to make better vinegar. They began to make ”sake” for the ”sake” lees which is the main ingredient for vinegar.
Even after more than 100 years since then, they continue to make vinegar named ”Kokonoe”. Their ”sake” also has a crisp acidic taste.

This is a popular, high quality product which is often taken up in the media. The ”sake” has a slight sweetness and crisp acidic flavor. We recommend you taste it at least once.
