SUIGEI JUNMAI DAIGINJO MANN 720ml

ABOUT THE SAKE

Suigei Brewing Co., Ltd., established in 1872 in Kochi Prefecture, Japan, has a rich history spanning over 150 years. The brewery, originally named Kichizō, was renamed Suigei, meaning "Drunken Whale," inspired by a historical nickname for a local lord known for his love of sake. Located in Tosa City, Suigei benefits from Kochi’s pristine natural environment, including access to high-quality water from the Niyodo River, one of Japan’s purest water sources. This water is crucial for crafting their signature clean and crisp sakes.
The name “Man” (万) translates to “ten thousand” in Japanese, often symbolizing abundance or perfection, suggesting this sake is a flagship or special release in Suigei’s lineup. It likely represents the brewery’s pursuit of excellence, combining their signature Kochi ingredients and meticulous brewing techniques to create a sake that is both luxurious and versatile, ideal for special occasions or as a thoughtful gift.

TASTING NOTE:

While specific tasting notes for Suigei Junmai Daiginjo Man are not detailed in the provided references, we can infer its characteristics based on Suigei’s Junmai Daiginjo portfolio, such as their Harmony Blend and Daito Premium Junmai Daiginjo, which share similar production principles. Junmai Daiginjo is the pinnacle of sake craftsmanship, made with rice polished to at least 50% (often more for premium expressions like Man) and without added distilled alcohol, resulting in a pure, refined, and complex sake.
