Product details
Fukuda Yamadanishiki Junmai Ginjo Sake is a testament to over 300 years of brewing tradition, crafted in the scenic southern part of Hirado Island, where the sacred Mt. Shijiki stands sentinel over the serene Shijiki Bay. Since its founding in 1688, Fukuda Brewery has remained steadfast in its commitment to excellence, blending history, innovation, and the natural beauty of its surroundings. The sake is made with locally cultivated, pesticide-free Yamadanishiki rice, nurtured by Hirado's salty sea breeze and the fertile soil of the island. Bottled with the utmost care to preserve its freshness, this sake embodies a delicate yet dynamic character that mirrors the gentle splash of Shijiki Bay’s light blue waters.
The result is a sake of extraordinary refinement, featuring a subtle effervescence that spreads softly across the palate, delivering a harmonious balance of flavor and elegance. Perfectly suited to pair with fresh seafood from Hirado, its clean and sophisticated profile enhances the natural sweetness and umami of the dishes it accompanies. Recognized for its exceptional quality, Fukuda Yamadanishiki Junmai Ginjo Sake earned a silver medal at the 2018/2019 International Wine Challenge, making it a celebrated choice for sake enthusiasts seeking a connection to the rich history and stunning landscape of Hirado.
