Miyakanbai Spring Time (720ml) 宮寒梅 純米吟醸 SPRINGTIME

In celebration of Spring, Kanbai Brewery has developed an original yeast Miyatsubaki, isolated from blooming Camellia flowers, a harbinger of Spring, that grow on brewery property.

蔵に咲いた椿の花から奇跡的に清酒造りに適した酵母が発見され、7年間に渡り培養されました。宮寒梅オリジナルの椿酵母「ミヤツバキ」として、7年越しに使用された渾身の一品です。ふわりと柔らかな甘味の先に、微かな酸味が広がります。酵母由来のユニークで優しい味わいをお楽しみください。

Kanbai Shuzo 寒梅酒造

Kanbai Shuzo, the producers of Miyakanbai sake, are the only cultivation brewers in Miyagi prefecture. Cultivation brewers are those extra dedicated individuals who manage all processes of the creation of their sake starting with rice cultivation. Both rice farming and brewing are carried out in the endless countryside landscape of the Osaki Plain.Kanbai Shuzo cultivates four types of sake rice on their land, the Aikoku, Hiyori, Miyamanishiki and Yamadanishiki. 20% of their total sake production is made with their home cultivated sake rice and the remaining 80% is made exclusively with Miyagi grown rice from local farmers.
