Blended with a mixture of Noto Gohyakumangoku and Noto Ishikawa Mon rice, both locally grown, along with a very special kind of yeast extracted from Noto seaweed, this award-winning Sake was specially created to complement the taste of squid. Possessing a sweet and plump aroma reminiscent of maple syrup and honey, the taste of this Junmai can morph drastically depending on the temperature. At room temperature, the sweetness and light acidity perfectly complements the sweetness of squid sashimi, but when cold, it matches the savoury taste of charred squid.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e• Sweet aroma\u003cbr\u003e• Rich in umami flavour\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrewery: KAZUMA SHUZO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Ishikawa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassification: Junmai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e%ALC\/VOL: 16%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Volume: 720ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRice: Gohyakumangoku 90% \u0026amp; Ishikawamon 10%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRice Polishing Ratio: 60%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSMV (Sake Meter Value): Info not available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServe: Chilled | Room temperature | Hot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching Food: Squid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KAZUMA SHUZO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41097995944099,"sku":"1400:162914","price":55.13,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0296\/7230\/8869\/products\/Chikuha-Ika-Junmai_1.png?v=1628829438"},{"product_id":"iwa5-a2","title":"IWA 5 | ASSEMBLAGE 2","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #957a4b;\"\u003eHeigo Australia is the official importer and distributor of IWA 5 in Australia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBottled June 2020\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIWA 5 is a new Japanese sake by former Chef de Cave at Dom Pérignon, Richard Geoffroy.

The distinctive orange label is a combination of motifs representing the sun, mountains and water which are central to rice growing and sake brewing. The word momidi (or momiji) which forms part of the brewery name references the Japanese maple tree but was also used to describe the colour change that occurs with the change of seasons. This coming to life as the colour change sweeps through the natural landscape of Japan is a strong and evocative image for Hatsumomidi sake brewery.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrewery: HATSUMOMIDI SAKE BREWERY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Yamaguchi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassification:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eTokubetsu Junmai (unpasteurised)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eALC\/VOL\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e16%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Volume:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e720ml, 1.8L\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRice: \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eYamada Nishiki rice grown in Yamaguchi Prefecture\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRice Polishing \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRatio\u003c\/span\u003e:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e 60\u003c\/span\u003e%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSMV\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e: Undisclosed\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServe:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e Cold | Chilled | Warm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching Food: Moroccan Tagine, Korean Fried Chicken, Malaysian\/Thai Curry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HATSUMOMIDI SAKE BREWERY","offers":[{"title":"720ml","offer_id":44277613232345,"sku":"1400:104901","price":52.85,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.8L","offer_id":44277613265113,"sku":"1400:104905","price":122.66,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0296\/7230\/8869\/files\/HARADATOKJUNNAMA.png?v=1699859733"}],"url":"https:\/\/heigo.com.au\/collections\/room-temp-warm-hot.oembed","provider":"Heigo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
