Product Description
Using Nihonbare rice (native to Shiga Prefecture), this sake was aged in enamel tanks for over 20 years! The result is a deep amber brew, with hints of raisin, allspice, brazil nuts, sherry, and whisky. Since this is a honjozo, it has an easy, clean finish. The complexity of flavors in this sake pairs well with bold foods like pork belly or spicy Szechuan beef. It can also be enjoyed as an after dinner sipper. Enjoy at room temperature.
Aged ginjo sake brewed in 1996. Shimmering amber color is distinctive.
