Why should you take it?
Perfect experience of the apple taste sake
The first impression of this sake is refreshing, like a green apple. It is interesting to note that as time goes by, the umami flavor increases, and the acidity, sweetness, and umami become well balanced and transformed into a sake with a high degree of perfection.
This sake uses a flower yeast isolated from apple blossoms. This flower yeast has the characteristic of producing a lot of malic acid, resulting in a sake with a clean and light aftertaste. This sake has the aroma of apple blossoms.
It may also be that maturing the sake in ice-temperature storage gives it a more subdued and balanced flavor rather than a glossy personality. Sake made with this kind of apple yeast is hard to find elsewhere, so it is definitely worth a try.

Amabuki Shuzo
Amabuki Shuzo is a sake brewery that has been in existence since 1688 in Miyaki Town, Saga Prefecture, located in the Saga Plain of Kyushu, where rice cultivation is flourishing. The current president, the 11th generation, who studied yeast at Tokyo University of Agriculture, wanted to create a sake that would serve as a gateway to Japanese sake, and in 2000 he pioneered the introduction of a new yeast, "flower yeast," ahead of other breweries, and the company has grown into a "flower yeast sake brewery" that is well-loved throughout Japan.
Each of the approximately 14 varieties of flower yeast we handle has a distinct flavor and aroma, and is rich in individuality. They have a wide variety of faces, from soft and gorgeous aromas to strong and rich flavors, and produce sake with novel and unique tastes that overturn the stereotypes of sake.
We also use local sake rice grown by the duck farming method, which does not use any pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers, and draw mellow subterranean water from the Sefuri Mountains from the deepest stratum where the best water can be obtained after thorough water quality testing.
Area
Miyaki / Saga
Located in the eastern part of Saga Prefecture and home to approximately 25,000 people, Miyaki-cho is a town where autumn sunflowers are in full bloom for a month from November, creating a beautiful coexistence of the clear autumn sky and sunflowers. This scenery, which has a different charm from that of summer sunflowers, strikes the heart like an out-of-season gift.
In addition, nine buildings of the Amabuki Brewery have been designated as registered tangible cultural properties, and there are many cultural assets and historical legacies in Saga Prefecture.
The Yoshinogari Ruins of the Yayoi Period (300 BCE–300 CE), which appear in history textbooks, were discovered in the neighboring city of Kanzaki. Today, the area has been developed as a historical park and is a place where visitors can spend time at leisure.
