Description
This sake is produced from Hattannishiki rice, polished to 60%. This widely cultivated sake variety produces a highly aromatic and well-balanced sake. In addition to being junmai, meaning no alcohol is added, it is a "muroka" sake. This means that it is not finely filtered with activated carbon particles. The producer simply cleans the surface and leaves the residual deposits from the pressing in the bottle. This sake is also a "nama" sake: In order to preserve the liveliness of its aromas, it has not been pasteurized. It also has the "genshu" designation, meaning that after pressing no water is added to the sake. This is also why it has a higher alcohol content. Alcohol content: 18°
Flavor

Pronounced umami flavor with a slight acidity and a long finish. The production process of this sake results in a purer and more intense flavor.

Conservation

Keep refrigerated. This sake is a namazake, meaning it is not pasteurized. Therefore, it is best to keep it refrigerated and consume it quickly after opening to avoid any alteration in flavor.

Chochin Shuzo
The producer

Chochin Shuzo

Fondée en 1868 à Tsushima, à l'extrémité ouest de la préfecture d'Aichi, la brasserie Chochin Shuzo est une petite maison vouée à un saké artisanal et méticuleux. Son propriétaire et maître-brasseur, Masayuki Kuwayama, est un perfectionniste qui réalise chaque étape à la main, de la manière la plus exigeante : la brasserie occupe de vastes locaux mais ne produit qu'une quantité infime de saké. Elle puise son eau dans un puits situé à l'intérieur même de la brasserie : une eau exceptionnellement dure pour le Japon, riche en minéraux. Ses cuvées les plus réputées forment la gamme « Shinbunshi », littéralement « papier journal » : les bouteilles sont enveloppées dans le journal local de Tsushima, une habitude née d'un souci d'économie (imprimer des étiquettes coûtait trop cher) devenue depuis la signature emblématique de la maison, tout en protégeant le saké de la lumière. Le terme « Chochin » (la lanterne) a été choisi par la génération précédente avec l'ambition de brasser un saké rare mais délicieux, aimé durablement et apprécié à travers les époques.
