Tatenokawa “Seiryu” Stream
Yamagata prefecture
Clear as mountain water
This junmai daiginjo, brewed from Yamagata prefecture’s Dewasansan rice, is so popular that it’s considered the “backbone” of Tatenokawa Brewing Company. Clean and crisp as a pristine mountain stream, it was inspired by the majesty of Mount Chokai (aka Dewa Fuji), the tallest peak in Yamagata. Refreshing and light, its smoothness and slightly lower ABV also evokes a sense of calm, making it a great pairing for Japanese comfort foods.

Tatenokawa Brewing Company
This prestigious brewery was founded in 1832, but was given the name Tatenokawa (in English, Castle Brook) by the daimyo Sakai Tadakatsu in 1855. As one of the few breweries dedicated to solely producing junmai daiginjo sake, their current vision is to create sake for modern times by pushing the envelope in rice polishing and forging international relationships. In pursuing these goals, Tatenokawa has achieved a 1% RPR, and has collaborated with renowned musical artists such as Foo Fighters and Phoenix. The brewery continues to impress on the global stage, consistently earning top awards in sake competitions around the world.
