Kikumasamune Brewery, in cooperation with Suntory, has released a new product,FORTIFIED SAKE NIPPONION" (490mL) was released on December 18th in a limited run of 2,900 bottles. This product is a new type of sake made by fortifying sake mash with undiluted whiskey aged in Mizunara oak barrels at Suntory Yamazaki Distillery, then blending it with undiluted whiskey. The sweet aroma of the barrel, flavors of fig and lychee with butter caramel, and a harmonious blend of sweetness and acidity reminiscent of wildflower honey create a gentle taste.
"NIPPONION" represents the fusion of Japanese tradition and fermentation technology, and embodies the idea of "Hug & Begin (to Discover Nippon)." The design expresses the tranquility of the forest in the early morning, and features a Mizunara oak plate and a large tree bookmark.
