Yamashiroya is one of three brands produced by Koshimeijo and the only brand available outside of Niigata. All Yamashiroya sake are developed exclusively through the Kimoto process. The theme of the brand is “Wabi-Sabi”, a term describing a Japanese aesthetic which recognizes the beauty in what is not perfect, that which is simple, modest and ruled by nature.
