About the brewery : Imadashuzo Hoten is located in the Hiroshima Prefecture, facing the Setonakaya Sea, an area with a temperate climate and known for its very fresh water (nansui). This water is very difficult to use for sake production and the Hiroshima producers had to make constant efforts to become an important region in the sake world.  Imadashuzo is a Toji woman who officiates, which is quite rare in the world of sake. She experimented a lot, notably by bringing up to date ancient techniques such as funeshibori, filtration in wooden bins through canvas bags. It also uses ancient strains of rice such as Hattanso rice, the ancestor of Hattanishiki rice.

Detailed tasting notes : While the Junmai of the same house is powerful and rich, we have more finesse with the Ginjo and always as much freshness and precision. A sake to associate with cheeses, shells, and also a very beautiful sake of aperitif.
