Rain falling on the land, the wind thatblows, the breath of the air, sake brews as the season comes and goes.
Domaine. This concept means trusting the unique elements of the soil and notagainst its nature. In the Sakura City in Tochigi prefecture, “climate,”“water,” “rice,” and “kura,” all these environmental factors can only be foundhere give irreplaceable uniqueness to Senkin.
Water is the life of sake. We are particular about the water that we are usingin sake making, and we use the same water to cultivate the rice. The originalingredients, “Kamenoo,” “Yamadanishiki,” and “Omachi” sake brewing ricevarietals, are grown with the same underground water vein of the brewery. Theyare the selected cepage or varieties of Domaine Sakura.
Keeping the same growing environment is a respect for nature, then we worktoward a perfect mariage. The individuality of this land is the individualityof Senkin.
The human being is not the producer ofrice. The actual producer is the biological components, the living things inthe soil such as insects, plants, and bacteria regarded as a troublemaker byhuman beings. For us, organic is not something special. Organic farming hasbeen practice traditionally. Returning to the origin of agriculture is what Senkinis pursuing as the root of organic farming.
Kamenoo is not only ancient rice but also the ancestor of the current ricebreed. However, the characteristics of the heredity being lose together as timepasses. Thus the original Kamenoo was eliminated as genetic changes, which isthe fate of agricultural products, and lost its genetic traits.
So now, once again, Senkin declares that “Our destiny is bound together withKamenoo.” The bond between Senkin and Kamenoo started 11 years ago. It revivedin the form of “the original species” that returns to the origin from the seed.The original DNA of Kamenoo, which is full of wildness, goes from ancient timesto modern times. It will be inherited and will change the future of sakebrewing.
Nature. It goes beyond"naturalism" —Supernatural sake revived with ancient technique. It isbrewed without any but only with rice, koji-rice, and water.
Without adding yeast, brewing with wild yeast, often derived from theenvironment in or surrounding the brewery, is time-consuming. However, it canfully draw out the energy of ancient Kamenoo rice and create a phantom worldwith infinite vitality.
To reproduce the historical sake brewing when we did not have any ricepolishing machine nor sake brewing rice.
Modern sake is the gift of technological innovation. However, we purposefullymove away from it and pursue the philosophy of "Nature" that respectsand pays homage to our ancestors. We believe "Nature" is borderless.Therefore, "Nature" can be shared with even other cultures of"Vin nature" and "craft beer."
The future of Japanese sake is timeless, beyond genres, and has become"borderless."
