This sake may not seem like it from its label, but it is surprisingly rich, strong, and delicious in taste. It has a light and smooth taste with a hint of sweetness that balances well with its spiciness and acid. Tasting it gives off a similar feeling as drinking the Dragon God's sake from the same brewery.
"Shin Kirari" is a creation of the 9th-generation brewmaster, Takagaki Renji, from Takagaki Shuzo.
This Junmai nakadori (center-cut) sake uses 5 million stones rice polished to 60%, and only the extracted middle part is bottled under low-temperature conditions, believed to be the cleanest and most balanced in terms of taste and aroma.
● Origin of product name
In ancient Japan, sake was an indispensable part of festive celebrations, where people enjoyed the lively festivities and congratulated one another on their happiness. Based on this hometown culture, we hope to "shine even in local areas". With this in mind, this sake is carefully brewed using a long and slow cold fermentation process. We hope you can experience the advantages of Japanese sake.
● Explanation of label:
The font for "Kirari" was created by a monk named Maki Yu'ei from Negami Temple (located in Iwade City, Wakayama Prefecture). He poured his emotions into this font while in the quiet temple, creating a font brimming with emotion.
