Mimurosugi Tokubetsu Junmai, Karakuchi, Tsuyuhakaze (720ml) みむろ杉 ろまんシリーズ 特別純米 辛口 露葉風

Sake Competition Gold

Tsuyuhakaze an ancient varietal native to Nara, offers excellent structure. This dry, umami-rich Karakuchi unfolds deliciously with each sip, a wonderful sake to pair with all forms of Japanese cuisine.

酒米は奈良県で有名な「露葉風」を使用して、加水と火入れをおこなった特別純米の辛口タイプ。香りは穏やかでありながらも、綺麗な酸としっかりとしたコクが爽やかな旨味をより引き出してくれます。後口のさっぱりとした感じは食事との相性はもちろん、お酒だけ楽しむことにも適しています。辛さを目立たせた味わいではなく飲み口の良いバランス感がすばらしいお酒です。

Imanishi Shuzo 今西酒造

A unique historical style of Sake which is carried on by Imanishi brewery is the Bodaimoto brewing method, once written about in detail in Japan’s first record of sake brewing, the Mishu No Nikki and native to the Nara region. This brew is made through a traditional method of lactic acid propagation and only with locally cultivated Hitomebore rice, fermented in traditional style barrels made with Yoshino Cedar from Mount Miwa. The Bodaimoto is a dedication to nature, within each bottle exists the commitment to nature and the abundance which it provides with little human technological intervention.
