Kirei Karakuchi 80
Hiroshima / Japan
Rice: Shin Sen Bon
Polish: 80%
Classification: Junmai Nama Genshu
Rich and textural, with dry minerality and spice-laden palate of liquorice and pear.
The Japanese word ‘kara’ means dry and the sake name ‘karakuchi’ means this sake is a dry style. The '80' represents the rice polishing rate, with 80% of the grain remaining. is low polishing leaves great flavours from the fats, proteins and amino acids in the rice and creates a richer palate weight.
Toji (Master Brewer) Masahiro Nishigaki utilises the brewery’s own special strain of yeast known as 'Kirei #9' to produce a high quality sake. He also uses a slow pressing technique that results in less liquid yet of a higher quality.
