Product details
Chiyo Shinomine Yamahai Omachi Nama Genshu Sake is a masterful expression of traditional brewing artistry, offering a bold and layered tasting experience. Crafted with the famed No. 6 yeast and Omachi rice from Setocho—renowned for its superior quality—this sake showcases an exquisite balance of richness, umami, and clarity. The Yamahai brewing method imbues it with depth and a unique sourness, creating a vibrant profile. On the nose, sweet and fresh yogurt-like notes entice the senses, while the palate unfolds with a round, soft texture and hints of mint, herbs, and delicate fruitiness. Each sip finishes clean and crisp, with a bright surge of sourness that leaves a lasting impression.
Best served chilled or at room temperature, this sake pairs beautifully with dishes like shabu-shabu, sukiyaki, and grilled unagi, enhancing the umami of each bite. The complex layers and mouth-coating savoriness make it a versatile choice for pairing with rich or savory foods. Chiyo Shinomine Yamahai Omachi Nama Genshu is a true celebration of craftsmanship, offering a refined yet bold sake experience that honors tradition while delivering a distinctive and memorable flavor profile.
