Product details
Otokoyama Tokubetsu Junmai "Sushi Booster" is a distinguished sake from the renowned Otokoyama Brewery, located in Asahikawa, Hokkaido. With a rich history dating back approximately 350 years, Otokoyama has been celebrated for its dedication to traditional sake brewing methods and exceptional quality. The brewery's commitment to excellence has earned it numerous accolades, including gold medals in international liquor competitions for 44 consecutive years. The pristine natural environment of Hokkaido, with its pure spring water and ideal climate, contributes to the unique character of Otokoyama's sakes.
The "Sushi Booster" was meticulously crafted in collaboration with approximately 50 sushi chefs from Hokkaido, who participated in blind tasting sessions to create a sake that harmoniously complements sushi. This Tokubetsu Junmai sake boasts a light, refreshing, and sharp profile, allowing the inherent flavors of the rice to shine. Aromas of oatmeal, vanilla, brown rice, cinnamon, clove, and sweet bread contribute to its complex bouquet. The medium-bodied palate is plush, round, smooth, and exceptionally easy to drink. As its name suggests, "Sushi Booster" is an ideal companion for sushi and sashimi, enhancing the delicate flavors of these dishes. It can be enjoyed at various temperatures, from chilled to warm, offering versatility to suit individual preferences.
