  • This is a very special sake to Obata Brewery as it was named after the youngest daughter of the brewery owner.

    Furthermore, it is brewed using locally sourced ‘Koshitanrei’ sake-specific rice. In line with the brewery's commitment to sustainability, oyster shells (instead of fertilisers) are employed in the rice cultivation process.
