Regular price $61.99

Brewed by Tenzan Shuzo (天山酒造) in Saga Prefecture, Itteki Nyukon (一滴入魂) literally means “one drop, infused with soul.” It embodies the brewery’s devotion to precision and passion — crafting sake that reflects sincerity, balance, and harmony.

This Junmai Ginjo is made with carefully polished Yamada Nishiki rice (55%) and pure spring water from the mountains of Saga. It opens with a gentle aroma of melon, apple, and steamed rice, followed by a smooth, rounded palate and a crisp, clean finish. Elegant and versatile, it’s a sake that quietly captivates with purity and depth.
