AKABU Junmai Daiginjo Kokujo No Zan Nama Shu
Rated 4.6
Rice used: "Yunokou" from Iwate Prefecture, 35% polished rice, 15% alcohol by volume
This Junmai Daiginjo expresses AKABU's goal of flavor and ultimate sharpness. This bottle is made from Iwate's finest rice, Yunokou, polished to 35% and slowly brewed at ultra-low fermentation temperatures. The perfect timing of pressing at an ice temperature of -1 degree Celsius and careful finishing of each bottle produces a pleasant umami and a superb sharpness. The aroma is pear-like with a soft touch. It is fresh and refreshing with a good acidity.
