The brewery’s home region of Iga, Mie Prefecture, is the birthplace of Ninjitsu, the art of the Ninja. (Interestingly, the Ninja Museum of Igaryu is located close to the brewery.) This Tokubetsu Junmai is exceptionally dry, rich, and savory, making it a perfect match for the region’s rich stews. This sake’s savory qualities are similar to a Left Bank Bordeaux or drier style of Mendoza Malbec.
