We aim to become a luxury brand that conveys the beauty and deep tradition of Japanese culture through the craftsmanship of sake, and that colors lifestyles around the world. It has a pineapple-like aroma and taste, and has received high praise from Michelin chefs and five-star hotel sommeliers. The sake name “Takanomome” reflects our desire to see things from a high perspective like a hawk, create new value for sake that is not bound by existing stereotypes, and be a sake that spreads around the world. . ■Official website:
