By maximizing the power of koji to convert rice starch into sugar, it delivers a harmonious blend of sweetness, acidity, and umami. It evokes the intense concentration of a rich botrytized wine or dried fruit. This sake shatters the conventional idea of sake with its dense, energy-drink-like intensity, creating an addictive quality that's hard to escape once you've tried it. To fully appreciate the overwhelming umami of koji, serving it near room temperature is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDense koji sweetness \/ Caramel-like richness \/ Complex acidity\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e【Product Information】\u003cbr\u003eBrewery: Tsuchida Shuzo\u003cbr\u003eRegion: Gunma Prefecture\u003cbr\u003eRice Variety: Asahi no Yume (Gunma Prefecture)\u003cbr\u003eRice Polishing Ratio: 70%\u003cbr\u003eAlcohol Content: 13%\u003cbr\u003eSake Type: Junmai-shu\u003cbr\u003ePreparation: 99% Koji preparation\u003cbr\u003eYeast: Kura-tsuki yeast (Brewery's proprietary yeast)\u003cbr\u003eOriginal Sake\/Dilution: Genshu (undiluted sake)\u003cbr\u003ePasteurization: Once pasteurized\u003cbr\u003eFiltration: Unknown\u003cbr\u003eStorage Method: Room temperature (cool, dark place)\u003cbr\u003eVolume: 720ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e【Recommended Serving Temperature】\u003cbr\u003eServe at a slightly higher temperature of 10-15℃, or gently warmed (nurukan).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e【Recommended Pairings】\u003cbr\u003eFoie gras, washed rind cheese, grilled unagi (eel).
