$59.95

Year: NV Region: Hokkaido Prefecture Country: Japan International Wine Cellar: 94 White Wine	Add to Cart:

"Very pale yellow. Complex nose offers saline, herbal and spicy notes, with a minty coolness. Wonderfully subtle, complex and precise, with a distinctly ethereal quality, high-pitched minerality and superb lift. Finishes very dry and persistent, with lovely lift. This is made inside an igloo in Hokkaido, in Japan’s extreme north, where below-freezing temperature prevents unwanted bacteria from surviving, thus ensuring a very pure saké. The clear saké is separated from the fermenting rice lees by putting it into canvas bags and allowing the saké to drip out overnight (as opposed to pressing it)" (IWC)

Winery Notes:
Tasting Notes:
A prominent fragrance, a clean and fresh taste, with flavor deep into the recesses. Truly one of the "Rolls-Royces" of Sake.

Notable Facts:
Each year, after the temperature drops below 14 fahrenheit, they build an Ice Dome outside near the main kura building. It is basically an igloo inside of which the temperature stays about 28 F, with 90% humidity and no wind. The low temperature means "nasty bacteria" cannot survive, and it allows them to make clean, pure, ultra-premium Sake. Additionally, they separate the clear Sake from the fermenting rice lees not by pressing, but rather by putting it into canvas bags and allowing the Sake to drip out slowly overnight, with no pressure at all applied to the mash.
