Description

Established in 1505, Kenbishi is the oldest existing brewery in the Nada Region, and the 4th oldest brewery in Japan. The logo on their label today was trademarked in 1505 and was the first trademark in Sake history.  They produce a very unique style of Sake, continuing to use the Yamahai method, and using wild yeast and natural fermentation, with famous hard water from Nada called Miyamizu. The sake is matured for an average of 2.5 years.

Tasting Notes:

Kenbishi’s classic style Sake with full flavour with good Umami and acidity in clear light golden colour. Blended with 1 YO to 4 YO aged Sake. A beautifully complex aroma with hints of mushroom, cheese and crushed nuts. The texture is creamy and give a nice spice. When this Sake is served warm, the texture become soft and mild. Umami with sweetness and smooth and mild acidity. Long finish with hint of bitter chocolate.

Food Pairing:

Grilled fish, black garlic cod, scallops, BBQ duck, chicken or lamb. Strong miso or soy sauce flavoured dishes such as teriyaki, sukiyaki or miso hot pot. Truffle infused dish is very good compliment.
