Kura works closely with local farmers to obtain high-quality Yamada Nishiki rice, produced in Kochi Prefecture. The Kura also benefits from the water of the Niyodo River, nicknamed "the purest stream in Japan", pure and soft water, which produces a very delicate sake. To brew his sake, Tsukasabotan Shuzo built the Heiseigura (Heisei Brewery), combining traditional brewing techniques with modern facilities.
This Junmai Ginjo is a delicate and dry sake with an incredible nose. A medium-sized glass brings out the flavors well for a better sensation. Wonderful balanced acidity and light fruit come through on the palate. It truly lives up to the beauty of its packaging.
It is an easy-drinking sake that enhances the life of drinkers, which can be enjoyed alone or to enhance the taste of food.
Tasting notes: Very clean looking, round, smooth and dry with notes of apple, dry pear and sweet white grape elements with a quick finish.
Pairings: Fine dishes, sushi and sashimi, steamed fish, oysters.
