Zankyo Super 7 
In 2009, the first sake with a single-digit rice polishing ratio was released in Japan. We brewed Zankyo with our newly built rice polishing machine, wondering “how far can we push rice polishing” and “how will the end product taste?” The sake was brewed with a technical mindset of suppressing the yeast-derived ginjo aroma and experimenting with the core flavor of the rice, but as soon as it was finished, we were contacted by breweries in the same industry who wanted to taste the sake. We thought if industry professionals were interested in the sake the greater market would as well, and thus Zankyo was born. The rice polishing ratio was 9% at the time, but it has evolved from 9%, to 8%, to 7% now in the present. It is an infinitely pure, beautifully translucent sake of supreme quality. Rice Kuranohana, polish to 7%, SMV+/-0, Acid 1,5, Amino Acid 0,7, Alc. 16% (The design of the outer box changes color every year.)
