Nestled in the heart of Yamagata, Sakata Shuzo brings us the exquisite Jokigen 'Rice Label' Junmai Sake, a true embodiment of the classic Yamagata style. Crafted from Hyogo-grown Yamada Nishiki rice polished to 70%, this sake is a testament to the brewery's dedication to quality.
Upon opening the bottle, you're greeted with a captivating aroma—a harmonious blend of fresh toasted grains and lush tropical fruit. As you take a sip, the medium-full body unfolds on your palate, revealing a beautiful glossy texture and notes of fresh apple and muscat grape. The sake culminates in a soft but dry finish, leaving a lasting impression.
What sets Jokigen apart is its atypical fruitiness, a characteristic that perfectly captures the vibrant and characterful potential of Yamada Nishiki rice. This sake is not just a beverage; it's an experience—a journey through the flavors of Yamagata.
For food pairings, this Junmai sake complements slightly richer dishes wonderfully. Imagine savoring it alongside grilled fatty salmon, roast chicken, or a spicy Thai red curry, letting the sake's vibrancy enhance the flavors of the meal.
In essence, Jokigen 'Rice Label' Junmai Sake is a celebration of craftsmanship and tradition, delivering a sake that is both lively and full of character.
