Kubota Shuzo Toji Ikkon Nama 720ml

This medium-dry namazake is called the Master Brewer's cup for good reason. A "muroka nama genshu" (non-charcoal filtered, unpasteurised and undiluted) made from 100% locally grown Yamada Nishiki rice and original brewery yeast. This is a big, boozy (18.5%) sake for those who like their drinks with expression. The palate is a juicy and mouth filling splash of honeydew melon, starfruit, muscat grape and cream with a rich and buttery texture with a touch of daidai citrus with a clean finish. Like a big red wine, this sake improves with a little air. All in all a smashing Daiginjo sake that drinks way above its price point. Namazake should be stored refrigerated and this sake is best served fairly well chilled.
