Kusudama Junmai sake, vintage 2007
Ref : NISTAKU8
Often referred to as the little Kyoto of the Japanese Alps, Hida Takayama town is a popular district filled with Japanese charm. Our artisan brewer, Hirase Shuzo, was born there in 1623 for almost 400 years, over 15 generations, has never stopped brewing quality sake. The name Kusudama means medicine. This sake is made with groundwater from the Alps of northern Japan, Hida rice, and extremely cold annual temperatures. It is said that this sake is made with the hope that it will cure what ails you.
This yamahai Junmai sake aged in cellar since 2007, at a temperature of + 15 ° C to + 20 ° C, is a koshu junmai. To benefit from the koshu categorization, sake must be matured for at least 3 years, causing the color to change from pale to golden yellow or amber in color.
This Kusudama Jumai sake has a soft and robust taste with an assertive crunch.
On the nose and on the palate, it expresses the aromas and fragrances of ripe sweet pears, black pepper and almonds.
Our perfect pairings : quail stuffed with foie gras or wild mushrooms, baked wild mushrooms, truffle risotto, truffle carpaccio, grilled venison, duck or goose foie gras terrine with truffles.
