Kidoizumi
Kidoizumi Afruge No. 2 2018 Junmai Sake
Bright acidity gives this sake a vivid, vinous profile, while extended maturation brings breadth and quiet complexity. Time in a used white-wine barrel adds a measured oak influence without overwhelming the rice character. The palate feels layered and composed, moving from tangy freshness toward a rounder, more mature impression. The finish is persistent and neatly balanced, with acidity and barrel character held in careful proportion.
Kidoizumi Afruge No. 1 2018 Junmai Sake
Bright acidity gives this junmai sake a vivid, vinous shape, while a single-stage fermentation builds concentration and character. Six months in a used red-wine barrel introduce red fruit and gentle oak, followed by a further eighteen months of maturation for added depth. The palate feels layered and savoury, moving from tangy freshness toward a rounder close shaped by mature fruit and soft oak tones.
