Rich! It melts! Raw chocolate with a focus on fermentation

This rich chocolate confectionery is made with luxurious cacao and is free of dairy products, nuts, wheat, and white sugar .

The white chocolate part uses carefully selected sake lees from Kita Shuzo, a sake brewery in Shiga, and the crisp texture of rich cocoa butter is a nice accent.

The dark chocolate part has a strong cocoa aroma, but has a milky texture that melts in your mouth.

The two-layered chocolate is an exquisite harmony of the gentle yet deep flavor of Japanese sake and the rich deliciousness of chocolate.

Almost everyone who tried it, young and old, was surprised at how delicious it was! I received a lot of praise.

Even people who don't like alcohol have received good reviews for the perfect taste .

The sophisticated art of koji and the wonders of brewing gentle sake.

Kita Sake Brewery, located in Higashiomi City, a town where clear water flows from the mountains of Suzuka, is essential to the creation of this product.

The sake born from the heart of Mayuko Kita, who is one of the rare female brewers in Japan, is an art created by the gentle brewing technique and the deep flavor of koji.

The rich flavor of the koji, produced by careful management day and night and the five senses of the brewers, spreads in your mouth and gently envelops your soul.

Even after more than 200 years, we have continued to brew sake that is loved by everyone with our unchanging spirit of sake brewing.
