The brewery also makes Watari Bune sake, but Taiheikai is their original brand. They named their sake Taiheikai because Ibaraki is on the Pacific Coast, which influences the food and sake of the region. They also hoped to send this sake to America some day. The front label of this sake is a traditional back label. To learn what it says, and more about this sake and others, please visit our website, www.jotosake.com. 15-16% alc/vol.
