Kitaya

In their own words

Quoted as the company wrote it, in Japanese. Translating a house's account of itself would make the words ours rather than theirs.

2007年に設立されて以来飛躍的に成長し、日本国外で行われる日本酒審査会としては最大かつ最も影響力のあるイベントになっています。

From the company's own site

How this house works

Counted from the bottles below, not written about the company.

What they distil

2 bottles here across 1 base: 1 mugi (barley). 1 more sits outside the usual bases.

Strength

Every one that publishes a strength is 25 percent. Most houses here spread their bottles across a range; this one does not.
