Imayotsukasa Sake Brewery Co. Ltd.

Since 1767 Imayo Tsukasa has been an integral cultural and economic cornerstone of Niigata City on the Sea of Japan. For over 100 years they have been preserving the traditional sake making method, and maintaining the integrity of the product, even in difficult economic times for the sake industry. All of the sake is junmai classification, which means it is pure, with no additives. It's made with nothing but rice, water and yeast. Only 20% of all sake earns that classification. Imayo Tsukasa released the Japanese Sake KOI bottle to honor a proud time in its long history. After WWII there was a shortage of rice in Japan, and many brewers added water to the sake to increase its volume. It was branded with the nickname "Goldfish Sake" as if it contained enough water for a fish to swim in. Imayo Tsukasa never added water, and their product took the name "Koi Sake", as it was strong and majestic.
