About
How to make the most of its vitality? At times, the earthy energy held within Omachi must be restrained. By drawing out the distinct qualities of Omachi, a late-maturing variety, and Senkin's very soft water, the volume of acidity and sweetness has been modernized. Wild yet elegant, this balance brings forth both richness and allure. The aroma is fresh and clean, with a strong sense of fruit. It has been likened to acacia and lychee, fragrances that evoke sweetness. Beneath it lies a calm, well-defined sense of minerality. On the palate, balanced acidity and sweetness spread through the mouth at once, a flavor reminiscent of the sweet-tart Senkin of years past. Rice used: Koji rice: Yamada Nishiki grown in Sakura, Tochigi (Domaine Sakura Yamada Nishiki). Kake rice: Omachi grown in Sakura, Tochigi (Domaine Sakura Omachi). Rice polishing ratio: Koji rice 50%, kake rice 60%. Specifications: Unfiltered genshu (undiluted sake), bottle-stored and bottle-pasteurized. Recommended serving temperatures: 10 to 15 degrees Celsius, and 45 to 50 degrees Celsius. Recommended vessels: Bordeaux-style wine glass, or ochoko (sake cup).
