Noguchi Naohiko Sake Institute Inc. Description
About 70 years of pursuit of sake brewing, this sake brewery was established by Naohiko Noguchi who is the brewery of Japan's greatest, known as "God of sake brewing," as the culmination of the sake brewing life. The sake brewery, which opened in November 2017, was named as a mission to study the craftsman's technique, spirit, and way of life in the sake brewing, and pass it on to the next generation.
Tasting Notes: Born from the same water source as had nurtured this sake's rice fields, one may get a sense of the terroir of Komatsu, Ishikawa Prefecture through this expressive and sensual Junmai sake. The nose is a gentle and calming bouquet of oriental flowers, mochi rice and incense, and upon the first sip, a delicate yet heady and creamy flavor spreads across the palate, reverberating as it warms in the mouth with infinite depth, yet ending in a clean, crisp finish.
Food Pairings: Garlic Butter Shrimp, Grilled Mackerel, Stir-Fried Pea Shoots, Moqueca.
