ZANKYO SUPER 7 SAKE 2016 16° 72 CL
In 2009, the first sake with a single-digit rice polishing ratio was released in Japan.
We brewed Zankyo with our newly built rice polishing machine, wondering “how far can we push rice polishing” and “how will the end product taste?”
The sake was brewed with a technical mindset of suppressing the yeast-derived ginjo aroma and experimenting with the core flavor of the rice, but as soon as it was finished, we were contacted by breweries in the same industry who wanted to taste the sake.
