Afruge No. 1

木戸泉酒造 木戸泉 Afruge No.1

Funsanomai rice is milled to 65%, grown naturally and chemical-free in Isumi city where the brewery is located. This sake is crafted using a 1 stage fermentation process (ichi-dan jikomi). This is the AFS junmai sake that now sees 6 months in a used red wine barrel, then further matured for 18 months prior to release.

2017 - Very unique and layered with notes of dried apricots, honey, and nuts, a little bittersweet with bright acidity. This is not your typical sake. Enjoy chilled in a wine glass.

2018 - Very unique, layered and complex, not your typical sake, enjoy slightly chilled or at room temperature in a wine glass.
