Ice Ice Baby!

I tried an interesting “Igloo” sake that I had heard about called Taisetsu from Takasago Brewery on Hokkaido Island. you can learn more about this brewery here. It’s a Junmai Ginjo with an ALC content of 16%, Nihonshu-Do of +3 and made with Ginpu sake Rice that I picked up at Landmark. This sake is slow aged in japanese ice dome igloo. I thought this sake was very fragrant and tasted smooth with a hint of carmel. The Sake is presented in a frosty ice blue bottle with a picture of the ice dome on the label. Certainly an interesting brewing method and worth exploring further!
