Made using Hiroshima’s representative sake rice “Hattan Nishiki,” the polishing ratio has been refined from the traditional 60% down to 55%, resulting in greater clarity and finesse. Combined with a newly developed Hiroshima yeast, the aroma is gentle yet carries subtle fruit notes, leading to an elegant and delicate finish.
It also performs exceptionally well as a food-pairing sake. Whether paired with oyster dishes, white fish (sashimi, grilled, or simmered), salt-grilled chicken, or even red meat, it enhances the natural flavors of the ingredients beautifully. A highly versatile and powerful dry sake.
From the highly regarded Houken Brewery comes this key new release strongly recommended by Yajima Saketen—an evolution of the classic flagship “Super Dry Junmai” into “Junmai Ginjo Super Dry.” Brewer Tetsuya Doi’s pursuit of “super dry” goes beyond a Sake Meter Value of +10; it is about delivering a structure where the rice umami fully unfolds on the palate before quickly tightening, creating a precisely designed dry profile.
