June 5th is Environment Day. The entire month of June is designated as 'Environment Month,' during which various events and activities aimed at solving environmental problems are held across the country.

In line with this Environment Day, the June Ichinokura official LINE-exclusive gift is super special! We are giving away one 720ml bottle of the environmentally conscious product 'Ichinokura Special Junmai Sake: Thinking About the Coexistence of People and Nature (abbreviated: Hitoshika)' to [30 winners] in June, up from the usual 10 winners!

Since its founding in 1973, Ichinokura has upheld 'coexistence with nature' as one of its management philosophies, striving to propose safe and prosperous lifestyles through the adoption of reusable R-bottles, sake brewing using environmentally friendly rice, and satoyama (traditional rural landscape) maintenance.

The concept of 'Hitoshika,' launched in September 2024, is 'Start with what you can do for the planet and the region.' It uses 100% organic 'Fuyumizutanbo Rice Sasanishiki' cultivated with the help of living organisms, is bottled in R-bottles, and uses labels made with FSC-certified paper, all aimed at reducing environmental impact. A portion of the sales is allocated to support an NPO engaged in conservation activities around Kabukurinuma wetland in Ichinokura's hometown of Osaki City, Miyagi Prefecture.

With an alcohol content of 14%, this sake offers a gentle sweetness and umami derived from the rice. Please take this opportunity to enjoy it. 'Hitoshika' was born from the desire to 'be a bottle that sparks thoughts about the global environment.' We hope you will turn your attention to environmental issues while enjoying this sake.
