You've heard of natural wines, but what about natural sake? Join us for a fifth installation of Natural Sake, a sake tasting series where we feature amazing breweries leading the way in the world of natural sake.
This edition we'll be featuring the Yamato Damashii range of sake from Eigashima Shuzo.
===== ABOUT EIGASHIMA SHUZO =====
Eigashima Shuzo is located in the city of Akashi in Hyogo Prefecture, west of Kobe, facing the Seto Inland Sea. It was founded in 1888 and today produces a wide array of sake, shochu and whisky (under the White Oak label).
The Toji at Eigashima is Yuji Nakamura who joined the
brewery in 2016. Previously he had been Toji at Imanishi Shuzo in Nara (Imanishi Shuzo are part of the group a liated with Shoryakuji - the birthplace of Bodaimoto/Mizumoto).
Nakamura-san has a playful approach to utilising the Mizumoto process of brewing and his technical prowess sets him apart from the rest of the field. Making Mizumoto is not the goal for him, simply it is a vehicle to craft a wide range of products through the Yamato Damashii range that are completely unique within today’s sake world.
