Product details
Sanrensei Junmai Ginjo White Yamadanishiki is a distinguished sake crafted by Mifuku Shuzo Co., Ltd., a renowned brewery located in Shiga Prefecture, Japan. Established in the historic region of Koka—famously known as the home of the Koga Ninja—Mifuku Shuzo combines traditional brewing techniques with modern innovations to produce exceptional sakes. This particular junmai ginjo is meticulously brewed using locally sourced Yamadanishiki rice, polished to 55%, and undergoes a single pasteurization process (namazume) to preserve its fresh character. The result is a well-balanced sake that captures the essence of Shiga's rich brewing heritage.
In the glass, Sanrensei Junmai Ginjo White Yamadanishiki presents a pale lemon hue and offers an inviting bouquet of green apple, steamed rice, and subtle strawberry blossoms. On the palate, it delivers a clean, dense, and dry experience, culminating in an aftertaste of fresh herbs and spices. This sake pairs exceptionally well with dishes such as grilled fish, fish cakes, hummus with vegetables, and nabe (hotpot dishes), making it a versatile companion for a variety of culinary experiences. For optimal enjoyment, serve chilled between 8-12°C.
