Description
Ginjo is a delicate sake with a discreet aroma due to a high percentage of rice polishing. Alcohol content: 15.3°
Flavor

Appearance: Junmai ginjo sake with a pale yellow color, with almost orange highlights. Clear clarity, a clean and thick disk.

Nose: A good and complex nose at first. Good intensity expressed by esters typical of ginjo sake: the caproic acid ester translated here by the pineapple aroma. Upon aeration, the ethyl acetate ester appears translated by the aromas of fresh grapes and fresh grass. We also notice the phenylethanol ester expressed by the floral scent of rose.

Palate: The attack is immediately expressed by glycerol. Then, a good reaction of acidity and sweetness is added to make it expressive and tasty in the middle of the mouth.

Finish: The retro-olfaction is powerful and rich thanks to the alcohol base that barely burns the tongue. Finally, a finish that lingers on the minerality.

Conservation

Store in a cool, dry place away from light.

Kamotsuru Shuzo
The producer

Kamotsuru Shuzo

In 1873, Wahei Kimura created his sake which he named Kamotsuru, giving birth to a brewery that officially became a company in 1918. Producing exceptional sake requires not only high-quality water, but also perfect mastery of rice polishing. At the end of the 19th century, this step was limited by grindstones driven by water mills. The Satake company revolutionized the process in 1898 by inventing Japan's first rice polishing machine, achieving an unprecedented polishing rate of 75%. This advancement paved the way for sakes of exceptional finesse. From 1970 to 1988, Kamotsuru wins the gold medal at the National New Sake Competition for 18 consecutive years, dedicating the quality of its vintages. In April 2014, during a official dinner between Shinzo Abe and Barack Obama, it is a Kamotsuru sake that is chosen to be served, an honor that further establishes the reputation of this historic Hiroshima house.
