Description

Koshu sake is matured for at least 3 years. Our koshu has been aged for 10 years. It is made from honjozo sake, made from Yamada Nishiki rice produced in Hyogo.

Flavor

This Koshu has a beautiful pale gold color. It is translucent and shiny.

Nose : The first nose is aromatic with light soy sauce, puffed rice, and iodine. Spices, hazelnuts, and roasted peanuts are detected. After aeration, the aromas are confirmed: roasted notes, cocoa, dried fruits, banana, and quince.

Palate : The attack is sweet and toasted rice. It's powerful, almost animal. The alcohol is present and diminishes as the tasting progresses. The mid-palate is round with notes of dates, dried figs, but also hazelnuts and toasted almonds. The overall effect is balanced and peppery.

Finish : The finish is cinnamon-flavored with apricots in alcohol. A touch of dark honey and light soy sauce rounds off this complex tasting.

Conservation

Store in a cool, dark place. After opening, keep refrigerated.

Hakushika
The producer

Hakushika

Founded in 1662, the Tatsuuma Honke brewery draws its excellence from Nishinomiya, in the heart of the Nada region, the historic cradle of Japanese sake. Nestled between Osaka and Kobe, this city benefits from ideal conditions for brewing: a water of great purity (the famous “miyamizu”), an exceptional rice, and direct access to sea routes. Among his creations, Hakushika sake has been famous since 1877 by winning a prestigious award and then a gold medal at the Paris World's Fair. This sake quickly became the house's emblem. The name Hakushika, which means "white deer," is inspired by a Chinese legend in which a Tang Dynasty emperor is said to have encountered a white deer wearing a medal indicating that he was over a thousand years old. He saw this apparition as a symbol of longevity — and himself became one of the dynasty's longest-reigning rulers. By adopting this name, Tatsuuma Honke pays homage to his centuries-old heritage, while affirming his commitment to promoting the art of sake for generations to come.
