Toko with Green celebrates the brewery’s commitment to sustainability, marking the achievement of carbon neutrality in its production facility. This sake offers a rich and inviting flavour, evoking ripe bananas and fresh apples, balanced by a clean, elegant finish that surprises given its low rice polishing ratio. Its complexity and depth make it an excellent companion to dishes with bold flavours, including sea urchin, salmon roe, prosciutto, and creamy pasta. Meticulously crafted to harmonise taste and environmental responsibility, Toko with Green exemplifies modern sake innovation while honouring traditional craftsmanship, offering a refined and memorable experience in every sip.
About the Sake brewery:
Toko, one of the oldest breweries still in operation since 1597, is the 13th oldest brewery in Japan. Its sake is brewed at Kojima Sohonten, which later became the purveyor to the Uesugi Family. The brewery is dedicated to delivering high-quality sake and a culturally rich experience to its customers, focusing on the treasures of rice and water—nature’s gifts. Toko values craftsmanship, using quality natural ingredients and microorganisms that require an experienced brewer’s skill. The brewery aims to achieve world-class status while continually improving through customer feedback and research. Recently removing distilled alcohol from its brewing process, Toko has transitioned to an all-Junmai brewery.
