NV | Sasaiwai 'Bamboo Celebration' Futsu-Shu | Japan 300ml Vecchia Cantina di Montepulciano Lovely tanninsFor everyday drinking but a cut above the cheap stuff. Made using a 120 year old recipe involving four stage brewing called Yodan Jikomi. After the starch has been converted to sugar by the Koji and the yeast has eaten all the sugars, amazake is added then brewers alcohol before pressing off the kasu (sake lees). The result is a dry and rich sake covering all fives tastes.
