Kenbishi boasts a 500-year history. Mizuho Junmai is made by blending different aged sake like blended whiskey.
The caramel-like aroma and amber color of the sake may make one wince, but the flavor is rich and well-balanced with a pleasant aftertaste that is not overpowering. The taste is rich, but balanced without being cloying, and when heated up a little, it takes on a different spiciness.
The brewery's motto is "Keep the clock ticking," and this sake is quite different from the modern juicy sake, but that's good in its own way.
