Senkin, "Immortal Wing", Classic Omachi Junmai Daiginjo

Item # 50556

Made from the heirloom Omachi rice, this lightly off-dry and fragrant Junmai Daiginjo is brewed using traditional methods. All of the rice is sourced close to the kura, and the rice is grown with the same water used to brew. Unfiltered, undiluted, and unpasteurized, this spends time aging in bottle before release. A rare and special sake to pair with matsutake rice.

Staff Pick Notes

During his early adulthood, Kazuki Usui trained as a sommelier. When he and his brother took over his family’s brewery in 2008 Usui could not hold back the wine influence in his brewing style. Ironically, the salty cuisine Usui's Tochigi prefecture has commanded a sweet touch to its saké. Senkin sakés allow for such "winelike" components as acidity, sweetness, minerality, and even touches of residual CO2. You’ll find these qualities and more in this Junmai Daiginjo. Aromas of grapefruit and apricots grace the nose. The palate is fresh, lively, and fruit forward with notes of peach, lychee, and asian pear. This is sake for soft bloomy rind cheeses.
