Profile & Story
Matsuura Shuzo, based in Ishikawa Prefecture, brews Shishi no Sato in the classic onigoroshi ("dry enough to kill a demon") style from Dewasansan and Gohyaku Mangoku rice milled to 65%.
Tasting Notes
Beautifully dry and spicy with a slightly nutty edge and the brand's characteristic clarity; a sake meter value of +9 marks its pronounced dryness.
Pairing Recommendation
The producer recommends the "mountain cuisine" of rural Ishikawa -- smoky grilled game, miso-based stews, braised daikon, and river trout.
