The "Wakakura 2023 White Koji Brewing", which was well received last year as the 7th year of Wakakura, is now back on the market. Incidentally, what improvements have been made since last year: ......💡
(1) The strength (balance) of acidity has been reviewed to make it easier to drink!
(2) "Four-step brewing" was added to compensate for the sweetness in the sourness.
(3) Use of "Namemoto No. 6 yeast" for a mild and clear aroma.
(4) Finished as "fresh stored sake" without using filtering materials so as not to spoil the flavor.
In addition, this year, a new "Nama-shu (720ml, 1800ml)" that was not available last year will be on sale. Since the quantity of this sake is very small, it will be sold only at direct sales outlets and some liquor stores in the city.
