This sake was developed using only specially selected Hiroshima-grown sake rice. The rice has been polished to 70% giving the sake a round, sweet and dry aroma.
Alcohol content:14.7°
Appearance : Junmai sake pale yellow in color, with silvery or even light orange highlights. Disc moderately thick, tears dense and regular.
Nose: The first nose is of good quality and expressive. The first aromas evoke orchard fruits, citrus (bergamot) and exoticism (passion fruit). In the background, the smell of fresh chestnut appears (kojï). A lot of purity and pleasure certainly linked to the mastery of polishing since 1898.
Mouth: The attack is delicate in texture thanks to the sweetness of the residual sugars and the glycerol envelope which intermingle. This sake is tasty and medium dry. The mineral texture of spring water provides a straight spine. Acidity and alcohol are in the shadows.
Finale : The retro olfaction makes the taste buds sensitive to sugars react. Salivating finish.
Accord : This sake is marked by its calm and smoothness. It will perfectly accompany your shellfish such as hot oysters gratinated with sake but also cheeses such as Valencay semi-dry goat's cheese. Try it with your beef stew or even cottage cheese cakes.
Tasting temperature: Best served chilled (10°)
Ingredients : Rice (27.8%), Koji (8.1%), Water (64.1%)
Storage: Store in a dry, cool place, protected from light.
In 1873, Wahei KIMURA invented his sake which he named Kamotsuru and whose brewery became a company in 1918. To produce high quality sake, it is not only water quality, but also rice polishing techniques that are essential. To overcome the limitation of polishing carried out using a grinding wheel powered by a water mill, the company purchased from the Satake company the first rice polishing machine in Japan, developed in 1898. Thanks to this technological advance, the polishing rate increased to 75%, a first for the time. In addition to winning first prize at the Paris Universal Exhibition of 1900, in 1970, and for 18 years. consecutive years, this sake of particularly esteemed quality won the gold medal at the National New Sake Competition and in April 2014, when Shinzo Abe met President Obama, it was Kamotsuru sake that was offered to them. This event, still in everyone's memory, made the sakes of the Kamotsuru brewery, this great name in sake breweries, even more popular.
