In pursuit of the belief that "sake brewing starts with growing rice," Izumibashi Sake Brewery is a "cultivation and brewing brewery" that practices everything from growing rice with contracted farmers in the local Kanagawa prefecture, to polishing and brewing, and this aged sake was brewed in 2006 and carefully selected by Juku to Kan from the brewery's matured sake library. Ebina City, Kanagawa Prefecture, is known for its hard water, but by aging the sake at room temperature in the brewery, the hardness is softened, allowing you to enjoy the inherent sweetness and umami. Aging also balances the astringency and bitterness, resulting in a well-balanced taste.

Tasting comments

  • Hidekazu Ishiwata
    (Former National Tax Bureau Chief Appraiser)

    The top notes are sweet cacao with a slight acidic accent. The aftertaste is well-balanced and clear.
    The taste is elegant and gentle.
    It has a quiet impact, but it's a drink that makes you want to sit in silence and enjoy it.

  • Akiko Toda
    (Director of ITTEKI, Japan Sake and Meat Research Institute)

    The aroma is reminiscent of popcorn, with purple and green nuances reminiscent of ginger and grass. This balance is interesting and deep.
    Although the flavor doesn't have a strong attack, the umami flavor lingers on your tongue.
    It's not particularly impressive, but it's an interesting drink that you want to know more about.

  • Yuji Yamauchi
    (Yushima Tenjinshita Sushi Hatsu 4th generation / 1st JSA SAKE DIPLOMA competition winner)

    The aroma of the shrimp soup stock is strong and assertive despite the mild coloring.
    My mind goes to shrimp crackers and I find myself wanting to bite into the sake.
    I want to slowly savor the kombu-like umami in my mouth for a long time, perhaps with some fried kombu on the side.
