Gunma Izumi Yamahai Honjozo is a bold, traditional sake brewed by Shimaoka Shuzo, a kura founded in 1863 in Gunma Prefecture, Japan. The yamahai method relies on natural yeasts that have built up in the brewery over generations, producing earthy complexity and rich umami depth. Brewed with rice polished to 60% and mineral-rich Akagiyama well water, it shows savory, dry layers and a long, warming finish. Best served warm, it pairs beautifully with grilled meats, mushrooms, and hearty cuisine.
