Uka Is The Japanese Word For Emergence. The Miracle Of The Butterfly Is The Birth Of An Elegant, Ethereal, Winged Creature After Transformation From An Earthbound Caterpillar. Uka Sake Begins With The Family-Farmed, Meticulously Cultivated Rice And Becomes A Uniquely Fragrant, Full-Bodied But Delicate Sake—A True Delight For The Palate.

Respect And Care At Every Step From Beginning To End Results In Uka Sake. Beginning With Its Dormant Life Within, The Rice Seed Is Planted And Nourished To Blossom And Mature Into Fields Of Golden Grain. The Rice Is Diligently Monitored For Harvest At The Proper Moment, With The Goal Of Producing The Best Quality Rice For Sake. At The Brewery, Centuries Of Passed-Down Experience, Craft Knowledge, And Brewing Style Coalesce With The Rice To Create A Sake Unlike Any Other.
