Akabu Sake Brewery was originally located in Kamaishi City, a coastal area of Iwate Prefecture, and after the Great East Japan Earthquake, the brewery moved inland to Morioka City and resumed sake brewing.
The area benefits from magnificent mountains such as Mt. Iwate and Mt. Hayachine, especially in the winter when it is bitterly cold, making it an ideal environment for ginjo-style brewing, which allows for long-term fermentation at low temperatures.
Water source: Morioka City's underground water vein or, unusually for underground water from the Iwate mountain range, soft water with a hardness of 30 to 50.
The moment you drink it, it has a clear, fruity flavor that spreads out and has a cleanness that disappears in an instant.
I drank this sake last year when I bought Shinmasa in Morioka.
I remember drinking it with everyone at Fukurokuju!
THE Junmai Daiginjo
It's a very clean and pure sake with no cloying taste!
Neither the sweetness nor the acidity is that pronounced.
We alternately sipped it with the snowman and enjoyed it.
The people around me are chatting and drinking in a lively atmosphere
While I was leisurely watching TV and keeping up with the world's affairs
Korori-san, who gave me the information about this sake when I bought it in Morioka.
I wonder if the earthquake was okay?
