Hyakunen Kijoshu
仁井田本家 にいだしぜんしゅ 百年貴醸酒
Launched in 2011 to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Niida Honke, this project will take 100 years to complete. Kijoshu is typically produced by replacing some of the water used during the fermentation with sake. This Hyakunen Kijoshu uses this technique but produces each vintage by using the previous year’s Kijoshu, rather than sake. This allows the taste of each year’s Hyakunen Kijoshu to partially impart on the newest vintage. It has a smooth, velvety smoothness with a honey-like sweetness. Perfect as an aperitif or as a digestive.
