Kanpai on World Sake Day!
Today is a day of celebration!
Because on October 1 - World Sake Day - the new sake brewing season begins in Japan.
The best way to celebrate sake is to drink sake!
With that in mind, 'kanpai' to another promising brewing season and enjoy discovering the most fascinating drop of all: the nihonshu.
The sweet
Dark chocolate, honey, yeast, dried corn, lime blossom and wood. The amber-coloured Shirayuki Edo Genroku is a strong and flattering Junmai (Genshu), fermented in wooden barrels (taru). Complex, multi-layered, with a long, salty sweetish haze, it is perfect as a digestif, with spicy or seasoned dishes and delicious with blue cheese.
The Milky
Fresh, unrefined, fruity sweet and slightly bitter, this milky premium sake is a lovely and viscid-like aperitif or an exciting accompaniment to spicy dishes like a curry. The Goriki Nigori, also available as MINI.
The umami force
If the menu is taste-intesive, this is your drop. Kozaemon Kimoto Junmai is simply a force in taste. Brewed according to the traditional kimoto method, this balanced sake convinces with its fresh and at the same time intense, sweet and spicy roast aromas and an extremely pleasant acidity.
The Rose
It hardly gets more exciting than this. Brewed from red rice (Menkoina) and triple the amount of koji, the complex X3 Rose convinces with elegance, a balanced flavour intensity, combined with a delicate sweetness as well as a nice, light acidity and that until the long-lasting finish. Simply palate-filling.
The vintage sake
Aged for 27 years, a gustatory masterpiece. The Yamabuki 1994 is a complex koshu, a powerful, intense and at the same time immensely harmonious vintage sake, with a seductive, fully matured bouquet, a lively acidity and a spicy aroma that spoils the palate for a long time.
