DESCRIPTION

Made from local Kita Nishiki rice, which lends the sake a clear structure and sharp finish
Aromas of green apple give way to a creamy body with silken textures and resolving with a spicy, dry finish
Works well with soy flavored dishes, marinated raw tuna, sea bream carpaccio, or in-season fresh tomatoes. Brewery: Sanyohai Brewery
Prefecture: Hyogo
Rice: Hyogo grown Kita Nishiki milled to 60%
Yeast: Kyokai #901
Water: Soft Hyonosen mountain water
Sake Meter Value: +10
Acidity: 1.7
ABV: 15% This Junmai sake from Banshu Ikkon is a beautifully lean structured sake, light bodied and linear, with the distinctive bright and spicy finish unique to brewmaster Yuichi Tsubosaka. While Kita Nishiki is a rice developed locally in Hyogo it is more characteristic of rice grown in the far north, with a firm grain that dissolves more slowly, producing sake of tight structure and clean flavors as opposed to the luscious rice types that made the area famous. It does retain a brightness of character unique to the region, and typical of all Banshu Ikkon sake
