À propos

Kamenoi Shuzo in Tsuruoka, Yamagata produces the wildly popular Kudoki Jozu (Skilled Seducer) brand. The provocative name belies serious craftsmanship — the brewery's fruit-forward, aromatic Junmai Daiginjo sakes have won countless awards and built a devoted following. Known for showcasing different rice varieties in single-rice bottlings, Kudoki Jozu is Yamagata ginjo at its most charming.
