Kiminoi Honjozo Josen - Honjozo sake from Kiminoi Shuzo Co.,Ltd, Nigata
Description

Kiminoi Honjozo Josen is a classic honjozo from Kiminoi Shuzo in Niigata, where a small addition of distilled brewer's alcohol is introduced to the mash to heighten aroma and lighten the body. As a josen-grade expression, it represents the brewery's everyday drinking tier, designed for relaxed consumption alongside food. Niigata's dry, food-friendly sake culture is well reflected in this straightforward, clean, and gently aromatic honjozo.

Kiminoi Shuzo Co.,Ltd

Nigata
"Sake brewing that is generously put on". It is a brewery where the traditional technique of 175 years of founding is hard. It is a sake brewing using raw rice made in Niigata Myoko, a rice that is a snowy highlight and has the optimal conditions for making rice. I would like to expand the well products.
