About this bottle

Takayu is named after a hawk soaring in the sky, which caught the eye of the first head of the house, a keen bird lover. 83% of the 1,542 Junmai Ginjo sakes in KIKI have a lower SMV, so +5 is a dry figure for the type. Its main brand Takaisami was named by the first head, a bird lover who was captivated by hawks soaring in the sky.
