Honda Shoten in Himeji produces the Tatsuriki (Dragon Power) brand, famous for its exclusive contracts with top Yamada Nishiki growers in Hyogo's elite Toku-A districts. Their obsessive focus on rice quality and terroir-driven brewing has earned them cult status among enthusiasts. The Akitsu expression, from a single village's rice, is a masterclass in sake terroir.
