Karakuchi 80 - Kirei Shuzō
720ml Junmai
The Japanese word ‘kara’ means dry and the sake name ‘karakuchi’ means this sake is an extra dry style. The '80' represents the rice polishing rate, with 80% of the grain remaining. This low polishing leaves great flavours from the fats, proteins and amino acids in the rice and creates a richer palate weight.
'Karakuchi 80' has a rich textural palate with dry minerality and an intensely spice-laden mid-palate of liquorice and pear.
This sake is unpasteurised (namazake), undiluted (genshu) and non-charcoal filtered (muroka).
Rice-Polishing Ratio: 80%
Brewery Location: Hiroshima
Alcohol: 17.6% vol.
