Misuzu: Unfiltered, unpasteurized sake.
The first Misuzu we have ever tasted is brewed at a small sake brewery in the Senma district of Nagano Prefecture, where the Senmajuku flourished as a post station on the Nakasendo Highway.
The first impression is apple-like aroma, and after swirling, the impression of tropical fruitiness like pineapple becomes more pronounced.
The wine has a slightly chili-like and soft mouthfeel, yet with a relatively high alcohol content of 17%, it has a robust drinking experience that belies the impression of a fresh aroma in a good way.
The wine has been aged for 4 months before shipping and is now ready to drink!
