The first sake that was brewed at Nambu had aromas blossoming of a wall full of cherry blossoms in full bloom, thus where the name Hanagaki is from. Home to one of the finest water sources in Japan the area is blessed with over 8 feet of snow every winter which provides this exquisite water in the spring. This is the gift of the spring that contributed to the aromas that were described.
