Hatsumago Junmai Kimoto - 720ml

Hatsumago Junmai Kimoto is a sake produced by Tohoku Meijo Shuzo in the Yamagata Prefecture of Japan. Here are some details about it:

• Rice: It’s made from Miyama Nishiki rice, which is milled to 60%.
• Method: It’s brewed using the Kimoto method, which is labor-intensive and brings depth, body, and acidity to the sake.
• Flavor Profile: Expect a low aroma, food-driven sake with medium body. Notes of raspberries and cinnamon come through, and it finishes dry.
• Pairing: It pairs well with dishes like oysters, caviar, sea urchin, crab cakes, cod fish, and roast chicken.
• ABV: It has an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 15.5%.
• Other Notes: The name “Hatsumago” means ‘first grandchild’ and dates back to 1930 when the brewery owner was inspired by the birth of his grandson, hoping their sake would convey joy and satisfaction.
