Kiku-Masamune Junmai Shiboritate Koujo is a vibrant expression from Kiku-Masamune, crafted to capture the lively freshness and rich character of newly pressed Junmai. Carefully stored at low temperatures before gentle heat treatment at bottling, this release preserves its bright aromatics and full-bodied profile while maintaining remarkable clarity and balance. Known for its harmonious combination of freshness and depth, Kiku-Masamune Junmai Shiboritate Koujo highlights the natural richness of rice with a polished, modern style. Served well chilled, it pairs beautifully with sashimi, grilled skewers, and a variety of savory Japanese dishes, making it an excellent choice for casual dining and elevated meals alike.
The aroma opens with vivid notes reminiscent of fresh orchard fruit, creating an inviting and expressive bouquet.

Its smooth texture carries into a rounded, lingering finish with subtle savory depth and refreshing lift. Balanced, approachable, and expressive, Kiku-Masamune Junmai Shiboritate Koujo offers a refined tasting experience that highlights both vibrant fruit character and elegant rice complexity.
