Product details
Hayashi Honten's OneTen Black Junmai Daiginjo Sake is a refined expression of the brewery's century-long dedication to craftsmanship and innovation. Established in 1920 in Gifu Prefecture, Japan, Hayashi Honten has been under the stewardship of the Hayashi family for five generations, with Rieko Hayashi currently leading the brewery. The OneTen series, including the Black Junmai Daiginjo, embodies the brewery's commitment to producing premium sake that resonates with both tradition and modernity.
This sake presents a pale straw color and offers a delicate nose with subtle rice notes and mineral accents. On the palate, it delivers an ultra-clean and vibrant rice-driven core, complemented by hints of wet river stone and subtle milk accents, culminating in a crisp and clean finish. With a Sake Meter Value (SMV) of +3.0 and an alcohol content between 15-16%, OneTen Black is versatile in its serving temperatures, ranging from chilled to room temperature. Its balanced profile makes it an excellent companion to a variety of dishes, including sashimi, grilled seafood, light salads, and mild, creamy cheeses like Gouda or Mozzarella.
