That estate-grown rice is milled here to an exacting 39%, brewed with house-cultivated Kyokai #9 yeast and deliberately slow low-temperature fermentation — a difficult process the toji reportedly times by experience rather than instruments, with steamed ginjo rice still hand-cooled and fanned by the whole crew in the old style. SMV +0.5, acidity 1.5, 16% ABV. Azumaichi is one of Kyushu's most sought-after brands, snapped up on release in Japan and poured in Michelin-starred restaurants, and this bottle shows why: it's the essence of premium Kyushu sake — rich, full bodied, and bold with layers of cascading flavor. Expect deep aromas of ripe melon, cantaloupe, and toasted grain, opening into bright pineapple, guava, and tart apple with a hint of ripe banana, finishing long with definitive acidity. Built for richer food: fatty tuna, roasted pork, grilled chicken, even foie gras. Serve chilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBuy Gochoda Brewery Azumaichi Eastern Legend Junmai Daiginjo Sake online with fast shipping right to your door.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chips Liquor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49662338007296,"sku":"C0010224L","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0057\/8089\/7892\/files\/Azumaichi_EasternLegend_JunmaiDaiginjoSake.jpg?v=1788323033","url":"https:\/\/chipsliquor.com\/products\/gochoda-brewery-azumaichi-eastern-legend-junmai-daiginjo-sake","provider":"Chips Liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
