Kan no Mai, a newly developed rice that thrives in cold climates, is the foundation of this unique sake. The rice's name is derived from the Japanese characters "Kan," meaning "God," and "Mai," which translates to dance or stage. The sake's distinctive flavor profile is a result of the specific milling rate of 68% used in its production. On the palate, this sake is textured and layered, with smoky and sweet notes that are complemented by a cleansing acidity on the finish. The rice notes are simply constructed, offering a malt-like flavor, while the prominent acidity leaves the palate dry and refreshed. This sake is an excellent pairing for a variety of dishes, such as yakitori or other grilled chicken, sweet potato gnocchi, or pork loin with apricot, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.
