*Yokowa AAA Rated Yamada Nishiki milled to 55% *Made in the time consuming Yamahai method, naturally developing lactic acid and picking up influence from the environment. *Origarami is a style where fine rice particles are left in the sake, leaving it hazy, with a silken texture and subtle sweetness. *Complex, dry, powerful. *A dynamic and exciting sake able to pair beautifully with an unusually broad range of foods, particularly well matched to spicier foods like Szechuan and Thai cuisine. *Meant to be enjoyed within the year, but aging will soften the citrus edges and integrate into the creamy base.

Country: Japan

All over Japan, farmers and wine producers take the production of alcoholic beverages including plum wine and sake very seriously. It is an industry which dates back well over a thousand years, and is held in high esteem in this far east country, where plum wines and sake often accompany meals and are used for ceremonial purposes. Whilst plum wine is produced in a relatively similar way to grape based wines, sake requires a complex process more akin to the brewing of beer, except using a rice mash instead of other grains. The rising popularity of both of these drinks in the west has seen the drinks industry in Japan increase dramatically over recent years, and both quality and quantity has risen alongside demand, and is expected to rise further.
