Product information from Bacchus Global Co., Ltd., based in Bangkok, Thailand. About Bacchus Global

Made for the 300 ml format, matured at ice temperature
Yamada Nishiki is polished to 50%, and the sake is matured at about −5 °C for twelve months. In the nama-chozo style, it is stored without pasteurisation and then pasteurised once before release. The 300 ml format is designed as a complete product, rather than simply filled from a larger bottle.
Melon and pear, a light roundness

Aromas of melon, pear and strawberry are layered with light nuances of white flowers and citrus.
The texture is round and smooth, with a subtle sense of viscosity, resolving to a clean, light and lingering finish.
Sabae, Fukui — since 1860
Kato Kichibee Shoten was established in Sabae, Fukui, in 1860. The brewery has produced junmai styles exclusively since 2003 and matures its sake below 0 °C before release. BORN’s identity is built around rice, water, time and a clean, layered house style.
Verified international recognition
International results are compiled from Kato Kichibee Shoten’s official award archive and grouped by competition. Existing exact-label IWC and Japanese competition records are retained. Different products and specifications are excluded.
