// Kita Nishiki Rice, 88% polished
// Serve chilled, room temp or warmed
"Kinoshita Shuzo was founded in the town of Kumihama, Kyoto prefecture in 1842. The present 11th generation Kuramoto (Brewery Owner) is Yoshito Kinoshita and together with Toji (Master Brewer) Philip Harper produces the exceptional Tamagawa sake range. Tamagawa can be translated as Jewel River and it is thought that the name refers to the Kawakamidani River which flows by the brewery.
The Tamagawa Time Machine is brewed to a recipe from 1712. Utilising Kita Nishiki rice this sake shows a beautifully sweet yet not cloying style. Notes of honey, rice bran and tea. Flavours reminiscent of savoury creme caramel with a long elegant finish." - Black Market Sake, Importer
