A Summer Recommendation – A Sake Dedicated to Rock Oyster Lovers

Crafted by a brewery deeply inspired by the unique appeal of rock oysters, this special Junmai sake was developed through close collaboration with oyster professionals. It is a tribute to those who truly appreciate rock oysters. (Akita is also known for producing excellent rock oysters!)

Made using Kariho’s original shubo (yeast starter) method, this Junmai sake is brewed solely from rice and rice koji. A portion of white koji is used in the fermentation process, giving the sake a vivid, refreshing acidity.

Staff Recommendation

Winter is the season for true oysters, while summer is the season for rock oysters! Fresh oysters can also be found in Tsukiji, making this an excellent pairing to try in our Tabitebako store.
