Sommelier's comments
This Junmai Ginjo sake is made from Yamadanishiki and Gohyakumangoku rice from Fukui Prefecture, polished to 55%, and aged for 15 years at a constant temperature of 13°C. It has a sweet and gorgeous aroma like ripe pears and a refreshing spicy aroma like cardamom, creating a very mellow flavor.
Brewed by: Funaki Sake Brewery
Founded in 1866 in Fukui City, Fukui Prefecture
Funaki Sake Brewery uses underground water from the Kuzuryu River, which flows from Mt. Hakusan, a famous mountain in the Hokuriku region, as its brewing water. The brewery is surrounded by rice fields, and the fertile fields produce high-quality rice, such as Gohyakumangoku, which is suitable for sake brewing. Every year, they brew small batches of sake by hand, mainly pure rice sake, and create beautiful sake that pairs well with food.
