This is a large 720ml bottle of Junmai-type Sake, presented in a display box. This is a dry Sake made with rice, water and koji which is brewed using the traditional kimoto technique where the starter mash is ground into a paste first. It is a full bodied, deep, mildly fragrant, dry Sake with a 15% alcohol content. Sake is the traditional alcoholic drink of Japan, it is a strong rice wine and can be drunk hot or cold. It is made from polished sake rice which is then fermented. The more polished the rice, and the more rice used, the more refined and aromatic the Sake. It is a social drink that is poured into short cups and enjoyed with nibbles or Japanese dishes and like wine, different Sakes match different types of food. Sake comes in many qualities from ring-pull containers made for one, to expensive, decades old Sake distilled in traditional wooden barrels, containing gold leaf or made from secret recipes.
