Tatsuriki Nihon Sakura Gold Sake 720ml
| Description: | Tatsuriki Nihon Sakura Gold. Prefecture: Hyogo. Rice Variety: Yamada Nishiki. Sake Meter Value: +6. Seimaibuai: 50%. Elegant and fruity, this gorgeous sake has notes of cereal grain, rhubarb, cherry blossom and "Fruity Pebbles." It is slightly luscious with a clean, uplifting finish. Brewed with Yamada Nishiki rice from Hyogo Prefecture Special A District (grand cru). Cherry blossom shaped gold flakes that dance in this sake imparts a luxurious feel making this a top choice for special occasions. Tatsuriki has a big focus on the terroir and differences in the soil used to grow their grand cru Yamada Nishiki in Hyogo Prefecture. More than 20 years of research was done on the soils that grown their Yamada Nishiki, resulting in significant findings on how the mineral and soil compositions affect the flavor profile of the rice. For example, the magnesium content in the soil and rice affects the sharpness and bitterness of sake. These differences translate into three of their most distinct sake, each representing a different rice growing area of Hyogo. They also carry a few more affordable options (less terroir focused) that pair very well with food! |
