*Sake Meter Value (SMV) or Nihonshudo
nihonshu=sake do = degree
SMV or Nihonshudo (Sake Meter Value) measures the density of sake relative to water, and this is the barometer for gauging the dryness or sweetness of the sake. The higher is the SMV or Nihonshudo, the drier is the sake.
A gentle and mellow taste harmonizes with the clean and refreshing aftertaste.
It has a slightly sweet ginjo scent with rice flavors and a rather heavy scent of roasted bananas. It is compatible with dishes that have umami, which is not that light and simple, such as dishes with dashi stock (cf. nabe (hot pot), fresh oysters, canard dishes.
That brings forth the original taste of ingredient.

SASAKI SHUZOIt is a region blessed with good quality groundwater. Good water is said to have been one of the reasons why Hideyoshi picked this place, and the brewery is still using "Ginmei-sui" water, which is said to have been used by Sen no Rikyu for his tea ceremonies.
Our craftsmen are devoting themselves to produce sake traditionally, by maintaining the spirit of “handing down Kyoto Tradition” and making use of the taste of sake rice.
Also, they are aiming to produce delicious sake, not only by inheriting early experiences but also by actively undertaking new technologies and cooperating with industry-academia.
