Pinnacle of Perfection
Delicately flavored, astonishingly subtle, impeccably balanced, this legendary label is the despair of sake critics in Japan, who confess that its flavor is impossible to describe.

Niigata Prefecture
Koshi no Kanbai is one of the most famous names in the sake world. An uncompromising focus on excellence over generations led to a type of clean, dry sake that came to be known as “Niigata style.” Koshi no Kanbai sakes have both balance and flavor depth—it’s as though every single molecule is immaculately in place.
