A central theme of the Urazato brand

SAKE ART TOKYO does more than select finished sake. We work with breweries to create a new expression together.

Our bottle with Urazato Brewery is SAT 001, Melon Cotton Candy. It begins with aroma and instinct rather than with a list of technical categories.

Urazato Brewery describes Ogawa yeast as a low-acid yeast that ferments well at low temperatures and produces a delicate aroma. The Urazato brand explicitly frames its work around exploring this yeast.

At the same time, we do not fill in unpublished SAT 001 specifications—such as its exact rice, polishing ratio or yeast—from assumptions. Brewery-wide practice and bottle-specific specifications remain separate.

PAGE POLICYGeneral information about the brewery is not presented as an analytical result or confirmed specification for SAT 001.
