澤姫 山廃純米 真・地酒宣言 無濾過生原酒
井上清吉商店㈱, 栃木
Inoue Seikichi Shoten, Tochigi
Tasting Notes: Rich, diverse and intense but yet scores brilliantly on the drinkability factor. A bold Yamahai sake with textural complexity given that it's undiluted, unpasteurized & not having undergone charcoal filtration.
Outstanding when paired with steaks & yakiniku.
Beverage Notes: Yamahai 山廃 - Sake made using a special method during the yeast starter (moto) stage. This allows environmental microorganisms to have an effect on the flavor. The resulting Yamahai sakes offers flavour with pronounced umami & higher acidity & overall complexity.
