Dune-filtered water and a yamahai built for steak — Cowboy Yamahai.
Shiokawa Shuzo brews in the old brewing quarter of Uchino in Niigata City, on groundwater filtered through coastal sand dunes. Alongside its classic light-dry Koshi no Seki, the house is known for inventive brewing — most famously Cowboy Yamahai, an 18% yamahai junmai ginjo designed for meat dishes. Tours run Fridays from May to September, by reservation.
