✨ Technical Specifications
The Aramasa Assortment Case represents a highly coveted, curated collection of exceptional sakes from one of Japan's most revolutionary breweries. Located in Akita Prefecture and established in 1852, Aramasa Shuzo is legendary for discovering Kyokai No. 6 yeast in 1930, which remains the oldest active brewing yeast distributed today. Under the visionary leadership of eighth-generation master Yusuke Sato, Aramasa has revived ancient techniques, employing 100% traditional Kimoto starter methods and fermenting exclusively in handcrafted cedar wooden casks (Kioke). This assortment typically showcases a diverse range of their celebrated lineup, such as the pristine, raw-style No. 6 series or the terroir-focused Colors series. Each bottle reflects a commitment to local Akita heirloom rice varieties, zero additives, and a signature flavor profile characterized by vibrant, wine-like acidity, delicate natural effervescence, and deep umami complexity.
