Product details
Jozen Aqua Junmai Sake is a masterful creation that captures the purity and essence of Niigata’s natural bounty. With its strikingly dry profile, this sake invites you to "taste with your eyes" as you enjoy its cool, blue-inspired elegance. The initial crisp dryness reveals layers of complexity: subtle hints of burnt brown sugar sweetness and lingering notes of stone fruits that dance on the palate. Its refreshing fruity aroma, harmoniously balanced with delicate undertones of rice grain and white chocolate, offers a sensory experience unlike any other. Matured to perfection, this sake boasts a rich and deep flavor, underscored by a viscous texture that enhances its smooth finish.
Jozen Aqua Junmai Sake is a proud creation of Shirataki Sake Brewery, located in the snow-blessed town of Echigo Yuzawa, Niigata Prefecture. The brewery harnesses the region’s natural treasures: mineral-rich meltwater from heavy winter snow, naturally filtered through mountain charcoal seams, and Japan’s finest rice, including the renowned "Koshihikari" variety. This perfect combination of pristine water and premium rice is the foundation of Shirataki’s artistry, placing it at the heart of Japan’s sake tradition. With every sip, Jozen Aqua reflects the brewery’s dedication to quality, nature, and the rich heritage of Niigata sake brewing.
