Hiroki Shuzo Honten (廣木酒造本店)
Hiroki Junmai Daiginjo (720ml) [HK Inventory]
Representing the absolute pinnacle of Hiroki Shuzo's craftsmanship, this Junmai Daiginjo shuns aggressive, trendy aromatics in favor of architectural precision and profound depth. Crafted with Yamada Nishiki polished to 50%, it opens with an elegant, restrained bouquet of white peach and muscat grape. The first sip delivers an extraordinary sense of concentration; the dense rice umami is tightly woven with soft local water, creating a texture that is simultaneously viscous and as brilliantly transparent as a polished gemstone. Its true brilliance lies in the finish—as the luxurious sweetness gracefully recedes, a highly tailored touch of bitterness, reminiscent of citrus zest or premium sencha, emerges to sharply define the structure, leaving a powerful, impeccably dry, and flawlessly clean exit.

Special Notes
About The Brewery
Hiroki Shuzo Honten (廣木酒造本店)
Located in Aizu-Bange, Fukushima Prefecture, Hiroki Shuzo Honten represents one of the most legendary tales of revival in the Japanese sake world. Facing the brink of closure in the late 1990s, the ninth-generation head, Kenji Hiroki, took a bold leap of faith and created "Hiroki" (meaning "Flying Dew of Joy"), a pioneering muroka nama genshu (unfiltered, unpasteurized, undiluted sake). This revolutionary brew not only rescued his family's legacy but also single-handedly ignited a new era in the modern sake industry with its vibrant umami and impeccable balance. Today, while standing as a highly revered and heavily sought-after cult brewery, Hiroki Shuzo remains steadfast in its philosophy of "brewing sake with a profound sense of presence and vitality," meticulously distilling the rich terroir of Aizu and their unyielding passion into every single drop.
