Nama Junmai Sake AFS
  • Brewery: Kidoizumi • Prefecture: Chiba • Rice: Local Fusa no Mai milled to 65% • SMV: -33 • Acidity: 6.8 • ABV: 14%

    • Bright, high acid sake with creamy texture from lactic acid.
    • Big, chewy texture, full bodied and viscous. Prominent flavors of lemon pith, sour yogurt, key lime pie.
    • A unique sake for pairing, prominent acid makes it ideal for rich flavors of foie gras, aged meats and soft, mild cheeses.
    • The letters “AFS” stand for Adachi, Furukawa, Shoji, the three people who helped Kidoizumi develop the hot yamahai method, where hot water is poured into mash to accelerate fermentation and produce larger flavors.

    This is a super unique and limited quantity sake made using the traditional
    Hot Yamahai fermentation method. It is also a rare example of “ichidanshikomi”—-one phase fermentation
