Urakasumi Hirano

The legendary master brewer Hirano shaped URAKASUMI’s house style for over 60 years. The ensuing ‘Hirano’ sake was created to honor his lifelong commitment to the brewery. This super-premium sake, a Junmai Daiginjo, produced using the Yamahai method, has a characteristic acidity and pronounced umami. It has a luscious, fruity aroma and fullness on the palate. When paired with food, it serves as a supporter for various dishes and greatly enhances them with its bold umami. Wagyu makes for a particularly pleasurable pairing.

Classification of Premium Sake

For high quality sake, rice is polished prior to processing with the goal of eliminating the bran and protein which encase the starch held at the center of the rice grain. The smaller the rice polishing ratio (expressed as a percentage of the original rice weight), the finer and more aromatic the sake. Learn more about the different classes of of Premium Sake...
