SPARKLING SAKESparkling sake ( happ-oshu in japanese) a new category marketed in the 1990s where Brewers were trying something new and fresh to excite the market. The simplest way to understand the making of sparkling sake is inject carbon dioxide under pressure once the sake id made and filtered. Most sparkling sake made this way are mostly clear and water like and colourless in appearance and mostly pasteurised. RAIFUKU SAKE BREWERYRaifuku Shuzo was founded in the land of fresh water at the slope of Mount Tsukuba in 1716 by a merchant from Omi. The brand name “Raifuku,” which has been used since the brewery’s founding, was derived from a haiku poem. Special attention is placed on the rice and yeast used as ingredients, and its management principle is to compete head-on in the market simply with the sake’s supreme quality. It is hoped that the brewery’s various products, made with traditional brewing methods and improved time after time, will bring “fuku” (good fortune) to all customers enjoying our sake.
