Nakao JozoMaboroshi Junmai Ginjo 720ml
About this product
The brewery's unique yeast and top-secret traditional techniques enabled it to be selected as the Imperial New Year's sake for three years from 1948 to 1950. The name "Maboroshi" was given to a special sake made using a unique process that has been handed down since that time.
Based on the concept of a food sake, Junmai Ginjo Maboroshi is brewed with Hattan Nishiki, a suitable rice for sake brewing produced in Hiroshima Prefecture, using No. 9 yeast. The refreshing ginjo aroma is elegantly expressed, and the flavour is broadened by ageing to fully bring out the characteristics of Hattan Nishiki, while the mouthfeel is clean and refreshing. The balance of sweetness, umami, acidity and a hint of bitterness creates a refreshing drinking experience with a good finish.
