Iyo Kagiya Muroka Junmai Red (720 ml)

IYO KAGIYA Muroka Junmai Red is produced by Kagiya Brewery in Ehime Prefecture, located on the island of Shikoku, Japan. The brewery focuses on crafting sake that expresses the natural character of rice and water through minimal intervention and careful brewing techniques.

This sake is made in the Junmai style, meaning it is brewed using only rice, water, yeast, and koji, without the addition of distilled alcohol. This approach allows the sake to express a fuller body and deeper rice character.

The term “Muroka” (無濾過) indicates that the sake is unfiltered using charcoal, preserving its natural flavors, aroma intensity, and richer texture. Compared with filtered sake, Muroka styles tend to show more depth and a more authentic expression of the brewing process.

Within the Iyo Kagiya lineup, the Red label generally represents a more robust and food-friendly expression, emphasizing umami richness and body while still maintaining balance and drinkability.

The result is a sake that is both rich and smooth, making it particularly versatile when paired with flavorful cuisine.
