Konteki Sake Pack

By |September 5, 2024|Categories: , , , , , |

Compare and contrast these 2 delicious sakes, one made as Junmai Daiginjo the other as Daiginjo that was brewed in the same way with the same ingredients as Pearls of Simplicity but with a touch of distilled alcohol to open up aromatics and lighten the overall impact. Konteki means “dew drops of the earth” while Higashiyama (the brewery name) translates to “eastern hill.“ Brewery workers have been known to start their days watching the sun rise over the mountains until the dew drops glisten as if they were the Tears of Dawn. Kampala!!!  

Iwanoi Spanish Galleon Yamahai Junmai Daiginjo Genshu

By |September 4, 2024|Categories: , , , |Tags: |

The best Iwase makes. It combines 40% polish rate with their super hard “shell” water and umami rich lactic acid production. This is not a highly aromatic, fruit bomb Daiginjo. Because it’s brewed with Aramasa yeast, it’s got low aroma and a salty, savory finish. Geeks only, please. Most sake isn’t actually great with sushi but this one is!

Afuri Terra/Y Junmai Yamahai

By |September 4, 2024|Categories: , , , |Tags: |

90% polished rice balances double the typical amount of Koji with the lactic acid production of Yamahai. The 40% Koji (starch to rice converting mold) gives layers of pine nut brittle and roast chestnuts. The Yamahai lends earthy mushrooms and the highest grade Hyogo grown Yamadanishiki offers pineapple flavors often associated with Daiginjo. Earthy flavors suggested the name Terra/Y.
