The Gassan brand which means “between the mountain and the moon” refers to the mountain castle Gassan Tomita. Every year, the best sake, which he called “Gassan”, was presented to Lord Hirose. The region is renowned for the purity of its spring water, which is taken directly from the well, and is the least mineralized in Japan.
