Born Gokuhizo Junmai Daiginjo

$0.00

Tasting Notes

Born Gokuhizo was originally produced in 1968 with a rice polishing ratio of 40%, which translates to a 20-30% polishing ratio by today's standards. This was an incredible feat at the time since rice polishing technology was not as advanced as it is today, and breweries were submitting competition-grade sake with a 50% polishing ratio to the Annual Japan Sake Awards. Born Gokuhizo was the first Junmai Daiginjo sake commercially available in Japan in 1968. Born Gokuhizo is currently produced with a 35% rice polishing ratio due to improvements in rice polishing technology. A splendid and elegant mélange of fresh and dried fruits, florals, spices, and earthiness on the nose. Smooth, round, and lush on the palate with a broad structure. Impact after impact, this sake carries the unique complexities characteristic of Born sake. This sake is a masterpiece that showcases the prestige of its historical brewery.
