Katokichibei Born Ginsen Junmai Daiginjo 720ml

Katokichibei Shoten and Their Brand "Born"

加藤吉平和他们的品牌“梵”

Katokichibei Shoten, makers of the exclusive “Born” brand of sake produced in the small town of Sabae, nestled in the mountains of Fukui Prefecture, are well known throughout the industry for strict and meticulous quality control standards.

加藤吉平是日本唯一一家“梵”清酒品牌的制造商，该品牌诞生于福井县山区的鯖江小镇，其以严格细致的质量控制标准而闻名于业界。

The brewery still maintains the traditional handmade sake brewing process that has remained unchanged since the brewery's founding. Today, Born uses only three things in its sake brewing process: rice, rice malt and water. No extra additives are added. 

酿酒厂自成立以来，一直保持着传统的手工清酒酿造工艺。如今，“梵”牌清酒在酿造过程中只使用三种原料:大米、米麦芽和水。没有使用任何额外的添加剂。

All sake at the brewery is matured in the low minus temperature range. Ice maturing gives Born sake a wonderful, ripe, fruity aroma and a smooth, deep texture. The sake is carefully matured for at least one year, and in the longest cases for more than ten years.

酿酒厂所有的清酒都是在零下低温下酿制而成。冰酿使“梵”清酒质地柔和、平滑、圆润、深沉。清酒经过精心的酿造，至少要存放一年，最长的要存放十年以上。

Sake Made to Celebrate the Birth of a Princess

清酒诞生于庆祝公主出生

Born Ginsen Junmai Daiginjo was produced to commemorate the birth of Japan's Princess Aiko. The birth of Princess Aiko is naturally a national event, requiring major preparations from an early stage, as a dinner and other events are held to which important people from Japan and abroad are invited. 

“梵”牌清酒是为了纪念日本爱子公主的诞生而制作的。爱子公主的诞生自然是一件全国性的大事，需要从一开始就做大量的准备工作，比如邀请日本国内外的重要人物举行晚宴等活动。

Born sake has been used many times for state dinners for both foreign and domestic guests of honour, but it is also a luxury sake that is too expensive to be consumed on a daily basis. However, this junmai daiginjo is a 'special product', bottled at an affordable price and made from the best sake possible, so that the general public would be able to celebrate the birth of Princess Aiko as well.

“梵”牌清酒曾多次被用于招待国内外贵宾的国宴上，它是一种昂贵的奢侈清酒，并不适合日常消费。然而，这种纯米大吟酿是一种“特殊产品”，瓶装价格合理，用最好的清酒工艺制成，所以普通民众也可以庆祝爱子公主的诞生了。

Made from 50% polished Hyogo produced Yamada-Nishiki and matured for one year at 0°C. The taste is 'clean and basic', and the aroma is relatively mild. It is a refreshing dry sake with a slightly bitter taste reminiscent of grapefruit. This is a sake that won the Champion Sake (highest award and first in the world) at the 2010 IWC (International Wine Challenge). Enjoy this world-renowned top-class sake to your heart's content!

由50%山田锦精米酿制而成，在零下温度下成熟一年。口感“干净原味”，香气柔和。这是一种清爽的干清酒，略带葡萄柚的苦涩。这是在2010年IWC(国际葡萄酒挑战赛)上获得冠军 (最高等级，世界第一)的清酒。尽情享受这举世闻名的顶级清酒吧!
