Staff Pick Notes

Yuho is one of the very few sake breweries headed by a female president. Taking over from her Father and Uncle, for over 18 years now Miho Fujita and her Toji Yokomichi-san are honoring traditional methods and style while creating some of the most inventive and forward thinking sake on the market. 'Rhythm of the Centuries' is made in the slow, labor intensive style of wild fermentation called Kimoto. This truly traditional style take a month or more to complete fermentation and is prepared completely by hand. The sake is aged in bottle for 4 years to develop before release. Primary aromas of toasted almonds and orange zest give way to a delicate silky texture and subtle chamomile tea notes. This is a captivating sake to enjoy with complex flavors, like Japanese Curry.
