Tamagawa is sake with soul, made from rice polishing to bottling without compromise in methodology or raw materials.
Within our lineup, we designate sake of particular charisma and quality as “Reserved”.
We offer carefully matured sake and selections from batches of especial distinction.
Some will be perennially available; others will comprise highly limited editions.
Our “Reserved” selections take Tamagawa to the next level.
A Once-in-a-Lifetime Encounter
with a New Wave of Flavor.
The “Red Label” yamahai was the firstborn of Tamagawa’s series of Spontaneous Fermentation products. The bold-flavoured 3U (undiluted, unfiltered and unpasteurized) version is a cult classic. This “Reserved” limited edition sees the original genshu pasteurized and matured at room temperature for three years and up. (Room temperature in our brewery means 2-3C in winter, and over 30C in midsummer.)

Sweet but strangely more-ish, Time Machine is made with methods recorded in 1712. Normal sake is almost colourless when pressed, but Time Machine immediately has a rich amber colour which would take five-to-ten years for normal sake to reach. From this extreme starting point, the “Reserved” version is matured for several years at room temperature.
