Junmai sake. The aroma, brewed in cedar vats, is subtle, and the suggested serving temperature of 10-15 degrees Celsius in a thin glass is certainly agreeable for enjoying the aroma.
The sweetness, acidity, and astringency are all well balanced, as it is said to be one of the thickest and most lingering and powerful wines in the Colors lineup. It seems to go well with meals that go well with red wine.
We drank it just around Christmas time, so the picture was taken with Santa Claus.
The rice is Misanishiki, Akita's premium sake rice. This rice is a crossbreed of Miyamanishiki and Yamadanishiki.
Polishing ratio: Koji rice 50, Kake rice 50
Yeast: Kyokai No. 6
Shinmasa Sake Brewery This sake is brewed using only rice grown in Akita Prefecture. One can sense the love for the region. The brewery is conscious in the best sense of the word, and strives to brew naturally, using no additives (brewing acids, minerals, enzymes, etc.) that are not required to be listed on the label.
