SummaryCUSTOMER REVIEWSCUSTOMER QUESTIONS

The Wine

The term "Junmai" is a classification of fine sake. The term Junmai-shu translates as "unmixed" or "pure" rice sake, which means no additives were used during production, neither sugar nor acids nor alcohol. The use of such additives are commonly found in the mass-produced, 'ordinary' sake known as futsushu. You may find the term Junmai applied to suchi made from unpolished rice as well as the pricier Junmai Ginjo (where 40% of the rice is polished off) or the ultra-premium Junmai Daiginjo (where 50% of the kernal has been polished off).

16% ABV

When pairing wine with sushi, there simply is no better alternative. Serve slightly chilled. DO NOT serve this fine sake warm (common with lower grade Sake as it covers flaws!!)

The Winery

Hinomaru has been producing Sake for hundreds of years. Some time ago, they decided to abandon the production of futsushu sake so they could concentrate on their fine sake, a move the market has rewarded handsomely. The facility is in the shadow of the nearby mountain and the rice growers who sell to Hinmaru work in the distillery during the off season, growing the raw ingredient for half the year, then producing it for the other half.
