"SHONAI BIJIN" ‒ A traditional and excellent pure
Shonai sake crafted in a centuries-old brewery
since the Edo period

Kimoto Junmai-shu, SHONAI BIJIN, is a Japanese sake
that is meticulously produced by the 400-year-old
brewery Watarai Honten. A gentle ginjo scent emanates
from it.
Watarai Honten has led Japanese sake brewing by
developing advanced products and focusing on
traditional manufacturing methods and uniqueness.
This sake features pure Shonai* preparation with rice,
yeast, malted rice, brewing water at a specially selected
production site in Shonai, Yamagata Prefecture. The
fermented rice filtrate, SHONAI BIJIN is completed using
traditional sake brewing techniques.

＊Shonai is the region located in the northwestern part of the Yamagata Prefecture.

Watarai Honten Co., Ltd. Is a long-established sake brewery that
focuses on uniqueness, incorporating traditional manufacturing
methods and developing advanced products.

"Kimoto" ‒ A lactic acid-free traditional
manufacturing method

Kimoto zukuri(brewing) is an additive-free process that
uses the power of microorganisms in fermentation. This
traditional technique is unique to Japan, established
during the Edo period. Most modern Japanese sake uses
sokujo zukuri(quick brewing), where lactic acid is
artificially added to shorten the production period and
stabilize the quality. However, kimoto zukuri takes about
twice as long to complete shubo(yeast mash) and
ferments slowly. SHONAI BIJIN-Rice Fermented Extract
(SAKE) uses this method to maximize the strengths of the
natural ingredients.

Fermented ingredients approach skin problems from many angles

In addition to fermentation products and nutrients, including amino acids, sugars, organic acids, minerals, and vitamins, it is generally reported that
Japanese sake include thioredoxin, an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant substance in the living body, alpha-EG, which increases dermal collagen
density, and natural-D-amino acids that are expected to have anti-aging effects. It is also known that certain functional peptides in Japanese sake
show anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Japanese unique fermentation technique, which has been passed down over more than 2,,000
years, has been fused with modern science and technology to evolve into cosmetic raw materials that approach skin problems from many angles.
