Date Masamune

playful essence with the perfect dash of dry

Back when the classification system gave top grades to sake whose breweries could pay larger taxes

Kuro Kabuto - Junmai Daiginjo Akitsuho though just gentlyThe name means black helmet because the first generation brewmaster was also a master of swords, and because of the use of black koji which is super rare for sake. Black koji produces more acidity, which the brewers wanted so that the sake pairs well with all meats and cheese. It took many attempts, but the result is a wonderful smooth texture filled with underlying umami.
