Junmai Ginjo “Cabin in the Snow”
Tohoku
Founded in 1903, the Saiya Brewery is one of the most award-winning breweries at the Japanese National Sake Competition. Located in the snowy region of Akita, in the past fifteen years of the competition, the brewery has won an astonishing ten gold medals. Mr. Takahashi, their brewmaster, has been recognized by the Emperor of Japan as a cherished craftsman.
This junmai ginjo is a favorite with new and seasoned sake drinkers alike. Featuring the proprietary yeast developed by Takahashi Toji, this sake is creamy, layered, aromatic and finished with a dry spiciness. An incredible sake to enjoy on its own as an introduction to the house style of Saiya Brewery.
Hints of anise on the nose; mango and strawberry on the palate, finishing with a white pepper spice.
