This sake is made with 100% black koji, which is emblematic of shochu production, and it has a powerful impact that dramatically redefines the traditional image of \"sweetness\" in Japanese sake. The rich body characteristic of unpasteurized sake (nama genshu) is combined with the \"sweet and sour\" aggressive crispness of citric acid produced by the black koji.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts flavor is fruity and energetic, reminiscent of dark cherries and cassis. The chewy umami derived from Milky Queen rice, when combined with the acidity of black koji, creates a unique sense of bliss. This is truly an innovative masterpiece worthy of the name Black Swan (an unexpected event), establishing the genre of \"black koji sake.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e【Flavor Profile】 Rich cassis-like acidity \/ Dense umami \/ Overwhelming individuality \/ Vivid finish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e【Product Information】\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrewery: Shirasugi Shuzo Co., Ltd.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRegion: Kyotango City, Kyoto Prefecture\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRice Variety: Milky Queen (Kyoto Prefecture)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRice Polishing Ratio: 60%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlcohol Content: 16-17%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDesignation: Junmai-shu\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrewing Method: 100% black koji, unfiltered unpasteurized sake (Muroka Nama Genshu)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYeast: Undisclosed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGenshu (undiluted) \/ Water Added: Genshu\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNama (unpasteurized) \/ Hi-ire (pasteurized): Nama-zake\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003c!--nl--\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eMuroka (unfiltered) \/ Roka (filtered): Muroka\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStorage: Refrigeration required\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVolume: 720ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e【Recommended Serving】 Serve chilled at 5-10°C.
