"Juyondai Shin Honmaru" and sushi: a sublime marriage

Adding to the luxurious experience of pursuing the ultimate taste of sushi is the sake "Juyondai Shin Honmaru." While this sake is a basic line in the Juyondai series, its deliciousness has earned it a beloved place among many gourmands.

"Juyondai Shin Honmaru" was newly released last year, inheriting the reputation built by "Honmaru." Along with the existing "Honmaru," it further expands the appeal of Juyondai. In particular, as Juyondai's standard honjozo sake, the "Hiden Tama-Gaeshi" technique shines through. In this technique, Takagi Shuzo's junmai kasutori shochu is used for alcohol addition, creating a rich flavor and deep richness.

The characteristics of "Juyondai Shin Honmaru" lie in its elegant aroma and robust, rich umami. The aroma of this sake beautifully harmonizes with the delicate flavors of sushi toppings, and when you take a sip, its umami further enhances the taste of both the rice and the toppings. It pairs exceptionally well with fatty tuna and high-quality white fish.
