Description

Miyoshino Jozo is a Japanese sake brewery located in the city of Miyoshi, Hiroshima Prefecture. Founded in 1872, the brewery has been producing sake for over 150 years. The brewery is renowned for its Hanatomoe Mizumoto, a junmai daiginjo sake made with Yamadanishiki rice and the brewery’s own yeast. The sake is characterized by its light and smooth flavor, with a hint of sweetness.

Kimoto Junmai Genshu is another sake produced by Miyoshino Jozo. This sake is made with Yamadanishiki rice and the brewery’s own yeast. It is a junmai genshu, meaning it is undiluted and has a higher alcohol content than other sakes. The sake is characterized by its full-bodied flavor and a hint of sweetness. It is a great choice for those who enjoy a bolder flavor.

Tasting notes

Yoshino is home to the Shoryaku-ji temple, where during the Muromachi period (from 1336 to 1573) a group of monks produced their own sake using a very special technique known as 'Bodaïmoto'.

To prevent the moromi from spoiling, the monks found the trick of starting the fermentation with spring water in which a certain quantity of rice had been soaked.

It showed that this soaking significantly increased the concentration of lactic acid. This compound is essential for preventing bacterial growth at the start of fermentation.

The result is surprising: a rich sake, with marked acidity, wild and powerful flavours of undergrowth, and mushroom, but also a lot of freshness with magnificent citrus notes.
