Made from Gin no Sei rice that’s polished down to 65%, Koshiki Junsukuri is a light, clean, traditional sake, aged in 100 year old vats, that evokes a sense of the Norther provence where it’s meticulously brewed. It’s pure, rice-driven flavors are subdued and understated. Pairs best with seafood and vegetable dishes simply prepared, including tempura but it also stands up quite well as a refreshing contrast to spicy appetizers like U-Gu’s Hamachilly - hamachi, chile peppers, cilantro, crispy garlic, ginger, onion and spicy ponzu.
