Embodies the famous proverb ”Meikyou Shisui (clear and serene)”
The Osawa family began ”sake” brewing in 1689, about 330 years ago. Since then, they have been making ”sake” in the town named Motai, blessed with plentiful rice and excellent water.
The name of the ”sake” this cellar produces is ”Meikyou Shisui”, which means ”clear and serene, as a polished mirror and still water”. It is a proverb to express an undistracted, clear state of mind. It so perfectly represents this beautiful ”sake”. It tastes mild and blends into your mouth naturally, but somehow seems to make you want to straighten yourself up.
In this area, there is a distinct transition of seasons. Each season has its unique scenery. ”Meikyou Shisui” also has a different taste according to the season. ”Sake” is made with the blessings of nature and the skill of humans. Delicious rice, high-quality water, cold winters, and the determination of brewers make up this crystal clear ”sake”.
