LIGHT & DRY

The Imada Brewing Company gives us a beautiful sake made from a once extinct strain of rice, Hattanso, that was revived by the brewery owner, Ms. Miho Imada. The product of her efforts is a complex expression of rice, lemon, apricot, and tilled earth. Produced in the Hroshima prefecture, this light and dry sake pairs great with sushi, shellfish, or white flaky fish.

Recommended Serving Temperature: 40°-50°F

Miho-san revived Hattanso rice, an extinct heirloom breed, by devoting over 10 years of her life to learning how to grow it and brew with it. Female brewery owner and Toji, Miho Imada, mills the rice for this sake less than most Junmais because she believes it results in the best expression of rice flavor, balance, and complexity.

Full flavor, earthy touches and great texture with a long, persistent finish.

An amazing oyster pairing, as Hiroshima has more oyster beds than anywhere else in Japan and influences the sake. Also try it with red curry and ginger steamed clams.
