Our very first sake offered at CIBI, is proudly made in Meg's hometown of Okayama. Shiragiku Shuzo (Brewery) is located in Bicchu-takahashi district, an old Japanese town also home to the famous Matsuyama castle built in the 13th century.

Shiragiku Shuzo is situated in an area fortunate with a good climate, consistent access to high-quality rice and clean fresh mountain water along with the techniques essential for brewing their Sake by the Bicchu Toji "sake master".

We have brought a big "Taru" sake barrel, a very special junmai sake. It has a rich bouquet with a mild taste allowing for the appreciation of the full flavour of the rice with a well-balanced sharpness.

Fresh sake from the tap!

Meg's dad always has Shiragiku sake on special occasions. We are very proud to share our local brewery back in Japan to our locals in Melbourne. 

We hope you enjoy a taste of Japan and feel a bit of Japan in you.
