Aihara Ugonotsuki Junmai Daiginjo: Silky & Aromatic Sake from Hiroshima

Aihara Ugonotsuki Junmai Daiginjo is a luxurious sake produced by Aihara Shuzō in Hiroshima Prefecture, a region celebrated for its soft water and delicate brewing style. Made using premium Yamada Nishiki rice polished to an impressive 40%, this Junmai Daiginjo offers a refined expression of elegance, balance, and aroma, true to the traditions of Hiroshima-style sake brewing.

The sake is brewed with meticulous attention to detail, emphasizing clean fermentation and a soft, rounded finish. On the nose, it presents elegant notes of white peach, melon, and pear, with hints of jasmine and steamed rice. The palate is soft and silky, revealing layered flavors of stone fruit, floral undertones, and a faint touch of sweet rice, balanced by gentle acidity. The finish is long and smooth, leaving a clean, polished impression on the palate.

Ugonotsuki, which translates to "Moon After the Rain," reflects the brewery’s philosophy of clarity and brightness. This sake is best enjoyed chilled to preserve its delicate aromas and crisp texture. It pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as sashimi, poached lobster, lightly dressed greens, or fresh crab.
