"Da Qi," a name that commands respect in the sake world. The product we are introducing this time is the most classic work of Da Qi Sake Brewery - Minowamon. This product won the highest honor, the Platinum Award, for three consecutive years at the Japan Local Sake Show from 2009 - 2011. Winning the award three times enabled it to enter the hall of fame of famous sakes and could no longer participate in the competition. Later, it went out of Japan and was highly praised by the French authoritative wine review La Revue du vin de France for its quality being comparable to that of top - notch white spirits. Is it really that good? Let's have a try right away!

Pour the wine into a glass, and the rice aroma seeps out, carrying a hint of apple's crispness, with a refined and restrained fragrance. The wine's body is extremely smooth upon tasting, and "creamy" would be a good adjective to describe it. The gentle rice sweetness slides over the tongue like cream, and the fine texture of the wine exhibits the elegance of a white spirit. The acidity is moderate, and after swallowing, there is even a hint of the aroma of burrata cheese slowly emerging! No wonder it's a wine that everyone praises! This sake is very suitable for pairing with Western cuisine; cheese, duck meat, oysters, or crustacean seafood such as lobster and crab can all produce a good chemical reaction with it.

BEHIND THE SEIMAIBUAI (MILLING RATE) NUMBER OF DAICCHI SAKE, THE TERM "SUPER FLAT SEIMAIBUAI" IS ALWAYS WRITTEN IN PARENTHESES. HOW TO UNDERSTAND IT? THE SUPER FLAT POLISHING TECHNOLOGY IS A UNIQUE RICE POLISHING TECHNOLOGY OF DAICHI SAKE BREWERY, WHICH POLISHES THE SAKE RICE INTO A "SUNFLOWER SEED SHAPE" RATHER THAN A SPHERICAL SHAPE, REMOVING IMPURITIES FROM THE SAKE RICE TO THE GREATEST EXTENT. TAKING KIJO GATE AS AN EXAMPLE, THE OFFICIAL INDICATES THAT ITS SUPER FLAT SEIMAIBUAI OF 50% IS EQUIVALENT TO THE DAILY SEIMAIBUAI OF 34%! NO WONDER THE SAKE QUALITY IS SO DELICATE!

CLASSIC WINES, PLUS A VERY AFFORDABLE PRICE, IS THERE ANY REASON TO HESITATE?
