Seikyo SEIKYO&CHEESE 720ml Bottle | Sake Nakao Brewery Hiroshima
Junmai sake "Seikyo SEIKYO&CHEESE", born for the encounter with cheese
This junmai sake was crafted by Nakao Brewery in Takehara with a focus on pairing it with cheese. The brewery repeatedly paired it with eight types of cheese and received particularly high praise for its pairing with Gorgonzola and smoked cheese. It is a sake born to be enjoyed with cheese.
Special features
Made with 100% Hiroshima-grown rice polished to 70%, this junmai sake brings out the rice's rich umami. It is then carefully aged at room temperature for an extended period to achieve a mellow mouthfeel.
Flavor and aroma profile
Slightly dry, with a Sake Meter Value of +3 and acidity of 1.6. It features rich, savory umami from the low-polished rice and a mellow mouthfeel resulting from long-term aging. We recommend serving it in a wine glass so you can enjoy it in a wine-like way.
Recommended ways to enjoy
Crafted with cheese pairings in mind, this sake is best enjoyed first with Gorgonzola or smoked cheese. It also pairs wonderfully with rich Chinese and ethnic dishes. Room temperature and lukewarm warmed sake are especially recommended, but it can also be enjoyed chilled or hot.
