Shibata Shuzo Yuzu Shibata Black 200ml

Shibata Shuzo was established in 1830 in Okazaki City, Aichi Prefecture, and is currently led by the Shibata family’s 8th generation President. The water itself is outstandingly soft (water hardness of 0.2), and is one of the softest waters in all of Japan. Shibata uses this Kanzui water for every step in the sake production process, including for Shikomi Mizu, or preparation water. The added yuzu is squeezed with the skin left on, thereby allowing for the juice to not be too sweet, with an added touch of tartness.
