Kamoizumi "Autumn Elixir" Junmai Daiginjo is a distinguished sake produced by Kamoizumi Shuzō Brewery, located in the renowned sake-making region of Saijo, Hiroshima Prefecture. Established in 1912, Kamoizumi Shuzō has been a pioneer in junmai brewing techniques, focusing exclusively on traditional methods that utilize only rice and rice koji. This dedication to authentic craftsmanship has resulted in sakes with a rich, full-bodied character and a distinctive golden hue, reflecting the brewery's commitment to preserving the unique qualities inherent in their ingredients.
"Autumn Elixir" captivates the senses with faint notes of persimmon, shiitake mushrooms, and autumn leaves, offering a harmonious balance of tartness, astringency, and sweetness. Its robust and textured profile pairs exceptionally well with rich seafood and fatty meats, making it a versatile companion to dishes such as miso-marinated fish, duck, and braised meats. This easy-to-drink daiginjo showcases Kamoizumi's technical mastery, providing a smooth finish that appeals to both seasoned sake enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
