Crafted for purists seeking the ultimate dry sake experience, the "Seppikosan Onikara Junmai" entirely lives up to its "Demon Dry" name. It presents an exceptionally sharp, razor-clean profile with a formidable cho-karakuchi (extra dry) bite. While the nose offers a subtle rice aroma and the initial sip reveals a fleeting touch of savory umami, the palate is rapidly swept by a bone-dry, uncompromisingly crisp finish. This extreme dryness works brilliantly as a dynamic palate cleanser, effortlessly cutting through the heavy richness of tempura, fried delicacies, or hearty hot pots. It is a versatile culinary powerhouse that commands attention whether served well-chilled or piping hot.

Special Notes
About The Brewery
Tsubosaka Shuzo (壺坂酒造)
Tsubosaka Shuzo was founded in 1629 (Kanei 6) in Nakadera, Kodera-cho, Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. Due to climatic challenges, the brewery relocated to its current site in Maenosho, Yumesaki-cho, within the same city, in 1805 (Bunka 2). To this day, it proudly preserves the traditions and specialized techniques of "natural fermentation," a process uniquely made possible by the distinct terroir of Yumesaki-cho.
The historic brewery building itself stands at over 210 years old and features an exceptionally rare architectural design. The floorboards on the second level can be removed, allowing brewers to drop koji directly into the fermentation vats below and to execute the traditional Tenbin-shibori (wooden beam pressing) method.
