Description
Kozaemon Junmai Ginjo Hiyaoroshi represents an exquisite variety of sake from Japan that captures the essence of traditional brewing. “Junmai” indicates that this sake is made exclusively from four natural ingredients: Rice, water, yeast and koji – a mold that catalyzes the conversion of rice starch into sugar. “Ginjo” stands for a premium category of sake that is characterized by a special brewing process and produces a particularly fine and aromatic taste profile.
“Hiyaoroshi” refers to a sake that undergoes a single pasteurization and is then stored for several months before being sold in autumn. This maturation period allows the aromas to fully develop and achieve a deeper complexity. Hiyaoroshi sakes are specially designed for the fall season and mark the traditional “Hiyaoroshi season” in Japan.
Kozaemon Sake Brewery, located in Gifu Prefecture, is highly regarded for its dedication to traditional brewing methods and the use of premium local ingredients. With a history dating back to the late 1600s, Kozaemon is known for creating sakes that are characterized by a fine balance and delicate flavors.
