A lighter-alcohol unfiltered Junmai
Clear is made with Kyoto-grown Iwai, Kyoto yeast Kyo-no-Koi and water from the Senshin-i well. It is unfiltered, undiluted and unpasteurised, with four-stage brewing and long cool fermentation shaping a 13% profile.
How it tastes
A soft aroma leads into rounded rice sweetness and concentrated umami. The texture is gentle and light, while the undiluted Junmai structure keeps the flavour from becoming simple.
Keep refrigerated. The rounded sweetness and concentrated umami stay consistent throughout.
Kyoto, a brewery restored in its historic centre
Matsui Shuzo was founded in 1726. Brewing resumed in central Kyoto in 2009, using water from the Senshin-i well. KAGURA brings together Kyoto-grown Iwai rice, small-scale brewing and a clear, rice-led style.
