Best Seller｜Banshu Ikkon Chokara Banshu Yamada Nishiki Junmai Ginjo Sake｜ Other Products

Chokara means "extremely dry," and brewmaster Yuichi Tsubosaka makes the style unlike anyone else. Where most chokara sake runs lean and austere front to back, his Junmai Ginjo pulls off a genuine trick: it starts luscious and fruity, with generous tropical fruit flavors, then resolves into a beautifully spicy, tingling finish reminiscent of white pepper — dry where it counts, generous where it matters. The rice is the pedigree here: locally grown Grade A Yamada Nishiki from Yokowa — the same coveted Special A District fruit behind the brewery's top daiginjo — milled to 55% and brewed with soft Ibo River water at Sanyohai Brewery (founded 1837 in Hyogo, Japan's most famous sake rice country). True Sake calls it a "performance sake" — one built to drink dry, be dry, and do everything dryness should do at the table — finding Asian apple, cinnamon, pear, steamed rice, and minerals on the nose. Skurnik's notes add sweet mint and underripe plantain aromas, a brightly textured palate with a light touch and lean structure, and ruby red grapefruit heading into that signature tingly finish. Serve chilled with richer fare: tuna steaks, roasted chicken, or soy-braised root vegetables.
