Hyperion
In Shakespeare’s Hamlet, a king whose wisdom reflects the majesty of the sun. Pristine, with elegant flavor hues from seven years of gentle aging. Pinnacle expression of the kimoto brewing style.

Sohomare Sake Brewery
Tochigi Prefecture
Rich, expressive flavour, genteel clarity and balance—these are the characteristics of sakes from Sohomare, established by the Kono family in 1872. Unusually, Sohomare uses “Designation A” Yamadanishiki rice not only for its premium “Kimoto Junmai Daiginjo” but for its “Tokubetsu Kimoto” and “Karakuchi” junmai labels as well.
