七田 純米 春陽75
Ogi City, Saga Prefecture
Est. 1875
Established in 1875, Shichida Sake is created by Tenzan Shuzo in Saga on the southern island of Kyushu. Current owner Shichida san is 6th generation.
Shichida’s goal is for their sake to have a clean juicy mouth feel with deep flavour with lots of umami and elegant acidity. Whilst respecting tradition, they bring a modern approach to the production of their Sake.
The brewery sits alongside the Gion River, with the nature around the brewery being famously clean and pure in Japan. Shichida only use local rice for their sake, and it is a creation from their natural environment. Shichida’s house style is juicy and full flavoured with good structure. They do not take charcoal filter process for all their sake so lots of flavour remains in their Sake, and the structure in Sake comes from local medium hard local mineral water.
Tasting Comment:
“Shunyou” is a sake-specific rice variety, meaning “Spring Sun.” Sake made with this rice is known for its elegant, light, and fruity style.
The rice polishing ratio is kept to a minimum to preserve its umami and balanced acidity.
