Sohomare Kimoto Junmai Daiginjo Sake Tuxedo (720ml)

A sophisticated junmai daiginjo for a sophisticated drinker. While robust, it steers away from the typical funkiness of kimoto style sakes; instead, this is an elegant sake with a subdued aroma. A kimoto done in a modern style.

Run by the Kono family since its founding, Sohomare Brewery was founded in 1872. Before taking over the business, the fifth generation and current president, Jun Kono, traveled to France in the 1980's to study the language and wine. His time there will later greatly influence the direction of the brewery. Shortly after becoming president in 1989, he decided the primary output of their sakes will be made kimoto style, there by radically differentiating his company from other breweries.
