Product details
Fukuju Blue Junmai Ginjo is a masterpiece crafted with precision and tradition in Japan's premier sake rice region, Hyogo. Using locally cultivated rice polished to perfection, this sake undergoes a slow fermentation at low temperatures to achieve its signature smoothness and depth. Its elegant bouquet, reminiscent of ripe apricots, harmonizes beautifully with the gentle umami of rice, making it a refined choice for any occasion. Globally recognized and celebrated, Fukuju Blue was even honored as the sake served at the Nobel Prize banquet, a testament to its unparalleled quality and prestige.
The Fukuju brewery’s location in Kobe’s Nada region is a cornerstone of its excellence. Nestled near Rokko Mountain, the area’s extreme temperature shifts and pristine Miyamizu water create ideal conditions for growing exceptional sake rice and crafting world-class sake. These natural blessings, combined with over 266 years of brewing expertise, result in a junmai ginjo that embodies rich tradition, smooth taste, and meticulous craftsmanship. Perfect for pairing with fine cuisine or enjoying on its own, Fukuju Blue offers a taste of Japan’s finest brewing heritage.
