Collection: Honjozo

Honjozo is technically defined as sake brewed from rice polished to 70% or less of its original size, with a small quantity of brewer's alcohol (10% of rice by weight) added prior to pressing. The sake is generally diluted with water after pressing, bringing it to a standard 15-16% ABV. This is a premium category and produces sake that is lighter in body, softer, and typically more aromatic than Junmai, all else equal. 

Honjozo are excellent everyday sake, easy drinking, on average the least expensive premium category, and versatile with both food and temperature.
