Yoigokochi has always focused on traditional Sake, in its purest and most essential form, made without any addition of alcohol, sugar, or other aromatic substances that could modify and alter the classic and natural profile, the result of the oldest production process, still based today on the artisanal rules passed down through the centuries.
The very name Yoigokochi means High-Profile Distillates, and clearly refers to the company's mission. The company aims, in fact, to make known, through a selection of labels of excellent quality, the authentic and traditional taste of great Sake, to spread knowledge and culture among Western enthusiasts,often misled by tastings of industrial and international character bottles, which do not represent the true essence of Sake. The world of the Japanese beverage is, in fact, very varied, with significant nuances that depend on the different types of Sake, the production areas, and the style of each individual sakagura.
We move from young and light Sake, ideal for tasting at aperitif time, to aged Sake that are perfect for after dinner. Within this vast universe, we find fruity Sake produced with polished rice (ginjoshu), unpasteurized and very full-bodied Sake (namazake), organic Sake with earthy notes (shizenshu), dry Sake (karakuchi), cloudy Sake made with unpolished rice (nigorizake), and soft and complex Sake, aged for a long time (koshu). In addition to these, there are fruit-flavored Sake, especially with Umeshi plums and Yuzu, a native citrus that resembles a wild mandarin with particularly intense and rich aromas. The company has a special focus on the organic world. The 12 Japanese sakagura that work only with organic rice.are part of the Yoigokochi catalog
