Product details
Koshi No Hakusetsu Junmai Daiginjo is an exquisite sake that embodies the rich heritage and meticulous craftsmanship of Yahiko Shuzo, a brewery established in 1838 in Niigata Prefecture, Japan. Renowned as pioneers of the revolutionary Izumi-ryu brewing method, Yahiko Shuzo has the esteemed honor of producing the sacred sake for the Echigo Ichinomiya Yahiko Shrine, reflecting their deep-rooted commitment to quality and tradition. This dedication is evident in their use of locally cultivated Yamada-Nishiki rice from Yahiko Village and the pristine subterranean waters sourced from the base of Mt. Yahiko, which together create a sake that is both authentic and exceptional.
Upon tasting, Koshi No Hakusetsu Junmai Daiginjo presents a bright and aromatic profile, characterized by a silky texture and moderate viscosity. The flavor is predominantly dry, with a Sake Meter Value (SMV) of +4.0, offering a harmonious balance that appeals to both seasoned sake enthusiasts and newcomers alike. This versatile sake pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes, including sushi, sashimi, and light appetizers, enhancing the dining experience with its refined elegance. For optimal enjoyment, it is recommended to serve this sake chilled, allowing its delicate nuances to fully emerge.
