Kinshihai Brewery 'Snow Shadow' Tokubetsu Junmai Sake

This is a true gutsy Niigata style sake, smooth and earthy, with notes of toasty brown rice. When chilled it makes a great companion for a sushi platter or gyoza dumplings, but when gently warmed it blossoms into the perfect accompaniment for yakitori, grilled salmon or roasted yellowtail. A blend of local rice varietals Gohyaku Mangoku and Koshi Ibuki both milled down to 58% then treated with the S-3 yeast to produce a mildly fragrant and clean sake with light earthy qualities. Smooth and earthy, notes of toasted brown rice Excellent with a range of food from sushi to yakitori and gyoza Gohyaku Mangoku and Koshi Ibuki rice milled to 58% Serve chilled or warmed
