Fukumitsuya Kagatobi Yamahai Junmai Extra Dry
€ 70
Kagatobi Yamahai Junmai Extra Dry is a sake produced by Fukumitsuya Winery, which embodies the ideal of dry taste through the use of the Yamahai brewing method. This traditional method, whose full name is “Yama-oroshi haishi,” allows for a slower, more natural fermentation by eliminating the heavy rice crushing process known as Yama-oroshi. The result is a sake with higher acidity and a rich, complex flavor profile.
The sake has a Sake Meter Value (SMV) of +13, which ranks it well above the threshold of traditionally dry sake, and its production does not involve filtration or pasteurization, thus maintaining a distinctive freshness in taste. This makes it particularly suitable to accompany intense and tasty dishes.
The name “加賀鳶” (Kagatobi) is inspired by the historical firefighters of the Kaga domain, known for their strength and courage, thus reflecting the intensity and character of the sake. This drink is ideal for those looking for a sake with a strong flavor impact and an excellent accompaniment to rich and aromatic foods.
