关于英君酒造

Founded in 1881 in Yui, Shizuoka Prefecture, Eikun Brewery has a rich history rooted in tradition. Unlike many breweries owned by local landowners, Eikun emerged as a branch of a family that did not cultivate rice, sourcing it for brewing since its inception.

英君酒造坐落于静冈县的结衣地区,于1881年建立,有着悠久的历史。与许多当地土地所有者拥有的酒造,英君是一个不自己种植大米酒造,自始至终采购大米酿造。

The third generation's tragic demise in battle left his widow, Masako, to safeguard the brewery. Today, Eikun primarily produces junmai sake, employing yeast developed in Shizuoka Prefecture and brewing slowly with water from the brewery's own well. The goal is to craft a delicate sake with a natural flavor and a fresh aroma that complements rather than overwhelms the subtle nuances of sweet, spicy, bitter, or acidic tastes—an ideal sake that enhances the dining experience.

酒造第三代在战争中不幸阵亡,留下了他的遗孀雅子(Masako)来经营酒厂。如今,英君主要生产纯米清酒,使用静冈县开发的酵母及自己酒造井里的水慢慢酿造。其目标是制作出一种具有自然的风味和清新的香气的精致的酒,作为甜、辣、苦或酸的细微差别补充可以提高用餐体验的一种理想清酒。

Sake That Redefines the Traditional Conventions

重新定义传统习俗的清酒

In a bold move to redefine the sake landscape, EIKUN Shuzo introduced Eikun! HOLIC in collaboration with Marie Chiba, the proprietor of Nishi-Azabu's sake bar EUREKA!. Launched at eight sake outlets nationwide in a limited edition of 1,500 bottles, EIKUN holic aims to overturn conventional sake concepts.

英君酒造大胆地重新定义了清酒景观,与西麻布清酒酒吧EUREKA!的老板千叶麻理绘(Marie Chiba)合作推出了EIKUN !HOLIC。在全国8家清酒店限量发售1500瓶,名为Eikun!HOLIC旨在颠覆传统的清酒概念。

This innovative sake offers a well-balanced sweetness and acidity, featuring the trendy 4mmp phenomenon in the sake brewing industry. Infused with the essence of citrus fruits like muscat and lychee, it boasts a refreshing top-tasting aroma reminiscent of white wine Sauvignon Blanc. Eikun! HOLIC utilizes Shizuoka yeast and low glutelin rice to create the distinctive aroma component 4mmp (4-mercapto-4-methyl-2-pentanone), akin to that found in Sauvignon Blanc wine.

这款创新的清酒提供了良好的甜度和酸度平衡,在清酒酿造行业中具有流行的4mmp现象。它充满了麝香和荔枝等柑橘类水果的精华,令人想起白葡萄酒长相思的清新香气。Eikun !HOLIC利用静冈酵母和低谷蛋白大米制造出类似于长相思葡萄酒中的独特的香气成分4mmp(4-巯基-4-甲基-2-戊酮)。

The name "Eikun! HOLIC" signifies an irresistible charm that captivates drinkers, from novices to connoisseurs. This limited edition sake stands as a testament to Eikun Brewery's commitment to pushing boundaries and creating unique, unforgettable sake experiences.

“Eikun!”“HOLIC”象征着一种不可抗拒的魅力,吸引着从新手到鉴赏家的饮酒者。这款限量版清酒是英君酒造致力于打破界限和创造独特、难忘的清酒体验的最好证明。
