A distinctive Junmai sake brewed by the Rihaku Shuzo brewery in Japan’s Shimane Prefecture. Founded in 1882, the brewery is named after the famous Chinese poet Li Po (Rihaku in Japanese).
Flavor Profile: The sake is described as textured and layered with a unique combination of smoky and sweet notes. You’ll likely notice:
Palate: Malt-like rice flavors with hints of citrus and a saline quality.
Finish: Dry and clean, driven by a prominent, cleansing acidity.
Unique Rice: It is brewed using a newly developed rice variety called Kan no Mai, which translates to "God's Dance" or "God's Stage". This rice is specific to the Shimane region and is known for its resilience in cold climates.
Grade: Junmai (pure rice sake).
Milling Rate: 68% (the amount of rice remaining after polishing).
SMV (Sake Meter Value): +5.0 (indicating a drier profile).
Food Pairings: Because of its smoky and savory (umami) profile, it pairs exceptionally well with grilled or richer dishes:
Grilled Meats: Yakitori, smoked chicken, or roast pork loin with apricot.
Savory Vegetarian: Sweet potato gnocchi with crispy sage and brown butter.
