Like the region’s symbolic “Tai” (meaning sea bream in Japanese) that navigates the arduous straits of Akashi’s coast, our family-run brewery has survived against the fierce currents of time and change since 1856. Embodying this spirit, we persist in our commitment to producing exceptional sakes, created from local ingredients.
Pioneered by several generations, each Akashi-Tai sake is a reflection of the Yonezawa family’s undying love for their profession, now guided by our Toji, Sake Master, Kimio Yonezawa. Located in the port city of Akashi in southwest Japan, the brewery continues to produce sakes and liqueurs, as it has for over a century.
Fuller in body and with a higher alcohol content, our Tokubetsu Honjozo Genshu offers more concentrated flavours. This sake can be enjoyed on the rocks or in cocktail making, revealing a greater depth than the Tokubetsu Honjozo..
Pink grapefruit, beeswax and white floral undertones on the nose. A creamy, rich palate with tropical fruit flavours balanced by a subtle umami note. A clean and long finish.
