PREFECTURE: TOCHIGI
RICE VARIETY: SAKEMIRAI
RICE POLISHING RATIO: 50%
The rice for this sake, called "Sake Mirai," was originally created in 1991 by Takagi Shuzo, the brewer of the legendary sake called Juyondai. It took 18 years to create this sake rice. Sake Mirai is exceptionally clean, transparent, while being robust and explosive with flavor and quite dynamic on the palate. Essences of green apple and jackfruit linger on the tongue with this lively sake. Houou Biden usually releases sake 1-2 months after the production, but for Sake Mirai, they let it sit for about 6 months. It matures well over the years. The sake rice “Sake Mirai” (Mirai means feature) from Yamagata was named with the hope that sake will continue to develop forever and that aspiring brewers will strive and shine.
