Established in 1922, Mii no Kotobuki are slow-pace brewers, with a high attention to detail, producing tiny amounts of sensational Sake. The Toji [Master Brewer] at Mii no Kotobuki is Tadatsugu Inoue who has been making the Sake here since 1996. For the ‘Biden Hojo’ Inoue-san utilises local ‘Itoshima’ Yamada-Nishiki rice.

A truly brilliant sake. Classic take on the ‘Yamahai’ - traditional starter method. Complex and layered with all that ‘Yamahai’ savoury/earthy character, finishing with a vibrant acidic lift. Drink with everything!
