Kizakura Junmai Daiginjo S

黄樱纯米大吟酿S

Fushimi-based Kizakura Brewery is one of Japan's top sake producers. The brand even became synonymous with sake in Japan in the 1980s thanks to a series of TV commercials featuring the mythical creature Kappa, which is also the brewery’s mascot.

坐落于伏见地区的黄樱酒造是日本顶级清酒生产商之一。上世纪80年代，由于一系列以神话生物河童为主角的电视广告，使得该品牌甚至在日本成为清酒的代名词，河童也是该酒造的吉祥物。

In order to make the superb Junmai Daiginjo, Kizakura combined two elements, essential for making premium sake –  Yamada Nishiki, which is the most premium and high-quality sake rice, and Fushimizu water, which is the perfect quality and composition for making sake. Combining these two elements together with 100 years of craftsmanship and the strict standards of the brewery master, Kizakura Junmai Daiginjo S was born. S stands for “Spectacular”, and we think this word describes this sake perfectly!

为了酿造出优质的纯米大吟酿清酒，黄樱酒造将酿造优质清酒必不可少的两种元素结合在一起——最优质的清酒大米山田锦和优质酿造用水伏水。将这两种元素结合在一起，再加上酿酒大师100年的工艺和严格的标准，黄樱纯米大吟酿S诞生了。S代表“壮观”，我们认为这个词完美地描述了这款清酒!

Kizakura Junmai Daiginjo S has uplifting aroma of fresh fruits such as honeydew, strawberry, and white peach, then comes a gentle silky strike on front palate, with a dry finish. This sake goes very well with sashimi and light tasting meals and is best served chilled or room temperature. With a rice polishing ratio of 50%, it is one of the very few decent yet affordable Junmai Daiginjo sake available on the market.

黄樱纯米大吟酿S具有令人振奋的水果鲜香，如蜜瓜，草莓和白桃，然后是柔和丝滑划过前腭，令人回味清爽无穷。这种清酒非常适合与生鱼片和清淡的食物搭配，最好是冷藏或常温饮用。它的大米抛光率为50%，是市面上为数不多的高档而又实惠的纯米大吟酿清酒之一。

Kizakura recommends enjoying this sake slowly on Saturday and Sunday, and we are sure this spectacular sake will make your weekends a little bit more special!

黄樱希望大家在周六和周日慢慢享用这款清酒，我们也相信这款壮观的清酒会让你的周末变得更加特别哦!
