Brewery: Miyozakura Shuzo
Founded: 1893
The five petals of the Sakura Flower represent the elements of flavor (sweet, sour, salty, bitter and astringent). Miyozakura strives to create balance of these flavors with the strength of their own hands and top quality ingredients. With a respect and thankfulness their natural environment, the path to their goal of making the ultimate sake is still clouded.
GIFU
The hand-made, playful pandas that encircle the cup's outer surface elude to the true nature of this sake. Smooth and plush with a nice dry finish and a shy but flowery aroma. When warmed, the deep, hearty and almost fierce flavor is revealed, but quite enjoyable at almost every temperature, and very pairable with almost any meal.
