Crisp, pure and beautifully balanced — a junmai sake inspired by the clear waters and natural beauty of Nikko, Japan.
Brewed by Hokkan Shuzo, a historic sake brewery from Tochigi Prefecture, Nikko Ichimonji (日光一文字) expresses a clean, dry style of junmai sake that reflects both craftsmanship and nature.

Made from carefully selected Japanese rice and pure mountain spring water from Nikko, this sake delivers a gentle rice aroma, smooth umami, and a refreshing dry finish that pairs effortlessly with a wide variety of cuisines.
