Shichiken Junmai 720ml
Size: 720ml | ABV: 16%
In 3 words: Clean, smooth caramel
Shichiken uses some of the purest water in Japan which flows directly off Mount Kaikoma, filtering through layers of 10 million year old granite, combined with locally grown rice and long-slow fermentation. All this results in a Junmai with sublime acidity that makes it both sharp and fresh. Light on the nose, this soft, smooth brew belies it's rather modest polishing ratio to deliver beautiful caramel and toffee notes. Works wonderfully gently warmed, and reminiscent of porridge with honey on a chilly Winter's morning.
