Exceptional

You will appreciate the tertiary aromas, the spiced and woody notes evoking curry, dried mushrooms, toasted almonds, and nougat. The palate is mellow, generous, very rich, with hints of yellow fruits and candied apricot, toasted almonds, oven-baked and honeyed fruits.

Producer: NAKAMOTO SHUZO

Nakamoto Shuzo

Founded in 1727 at the foot of Mount Ikoma, between Nara and Osaka, Nakamoto Sake Brewery produces artisanal sakés designed to accompany meals in the manner of a wine. True to this philosophy, it crafts its sakés exclusively from rice, water, koji and yeast, with no added distilled alcohol or antioxidants.

Combining tradition and innovation, the brewery pays particular attention to the quality of its raw materials and employs modern technologies, including a water activator that promotes the activity of koji and yeasts. This approach helps to develop richer aromas and to enhance the flavour quality of its sakés.
