Sake Taiheikai Sake Tokubetsu Junmai 720ml
Description: | Taiheikai, which means âPacific Ocean,â is made by the same brewery as Watari Bune. It is their original brand, which they have made since 1854. They named their first sake after the Pacific Ocean because the region, Ibaraki, is on the Pacific Ocean and they hoped to ship their sake to America some day. More than 150 years after creating this brand, they finally shipped it to the U.S. and we are able to enjoy this lively and delicious sake here. Taiheikai is not made with Watari Bune rice, but usually Gohyakumankoku. Taiheikai, meaning âPacific Ocean,â was the original brand of the Huchu Homare Brewery when it was founded in 1854. The Yamauchi's named their first sake after the Pacific Ocean, because Ibaraki is on the ocean, and the ocean an integral part of the region. Although it is not made with Watari Bune rice, it shares in a certain house style-abundant but balanced fruitiness offset by light nuttiness and earthiness. |
