Kikkawa Afuri Akatsuki Mizumoto Wine Barrel 720ML
Grade: Junmai
Rice: Miyamanishiki
Classification: Junmai
Alcohol: 13%
Polish rate: 65%
This Junmai sake takes its "Wine Barrel" name from a finish in used wine casks, layering a subtle fruit and oak character over Kikkawa Jozo's naturally crisp house style.
Of the three wells on the brewery property, Kikkawa Jozo draws for brewing from the one with the highest mineral content — an unusual choice among sake breweries, most of which prize exceptionally soft water, but one that contributes to the house's beautifully crisp style. The brewery blends traditional methods like hako-koji production with modern equipment, and its five full-time brewers, all younger than the industry average, represent a new generation of sake artisans.
A refreshing, modern sake with bright acidity and a hint of tannin from its time in wine barrels — approachable enough for newcomers, distinctive enough to intrigue the seasoned umami-head.

Kikkawa Jozo

Classification
Junmai Sake
Sake is brewed using only rice, water, yeast and koji. There are no other additives. To qualify as a Junmai, there is technically no minimum milling requirement, but the sake must be the “pure rice” style… no added distilled alcohol allowed
