Mii no Kotobuki 'Pastoral Beauty' Hojo Biden Yamahai Junmai Sake

The Hojo Biden Yamahai Junmai is a unique expression from a great Kyushu brewery, a bold sake designed to match the rich flavors of the local Fukuoka cuisine. Brewed a touch sweeter than a common sake, the off-dry flavor is balanced by a stronger alcohol presence of 16-17% and higher than average acid from the yamahai brewing process. The labor intensive and time consuming yamahai process also contributes a distinctive creaminess that leaps out.

The nose of honey, almonds, vanilla and a slight sweetness combined with acid give this sake a depth and body to stand up to rich cuisine like grilled mackerel, miso-marinated pork loin or a spicy hot pot. -Importer's Notes
