Shirayuki Edo Genroku Aged Sake bewitches the senses with a harmonious medley of bold, round flavors, reminiscent of dried red fruit, dark chocolate, honey, and a touch of oxidation. The unexpected marriage of salty and sweetish notes is further enriched by subtle undertones of yeast, dried corn, lime blossom, and a woody essence derived from its taru barrel aging. Boasting a potent blend of Yamada-Nishiki rice milled to 88% and an alcohol by volume of 17-18%, this sake is a contemporary homage to a 17th-century recipe, characterized by its viscous texture and heightened amino acid concentration.
