The brewery said, "This is the new form of sake naturalism". It is produced with the Kimoto method, however, lactic acid is not only added, but yeast is not also added. That means this label is totally natural sake. On top of that, this is 2016 vintage, aged in the wooden cask for 1 year. Please feel the power of the life which spreads to every corner of body beautifully. Super rare method is taken to produce this label.
I'd like to list up its unique points:
・Kimoto method
・Non yeast additive
・2016 vintage
・Aged in wooden barrell
It's quite exciting to try such a abnormal sake, the first taste is sour-sweet like juicy fruits, the concentrated sourness and umami stimulate your palate. Toward to the middle, a slight astringent taste, influenced by the wooden cask, shows up gradually, and a big wave of taste dominates all the mouth and leaves the overwhelming impact. Because of its rare method, the production quantity is extremely small. You should definitely have a try.
