Product details
Koimari Blue Bird Junmai Ginjo reflects the refined craftsmanship of a historic Saga brewery known for its meticulous rice preparation and expressive, aromatic style. Inspired by the elegance and clarity suggested by its “Blue Bird” name, this release highlights careful polishing, low-temperature fermentation, and precise balance to achieve a graceful, contemporary profile. Slight natural effervescence adds lift and vibrancy, enhancing its fresh character while preserving purity and structure. Crafted in small batches with close attention to detail, Koimari Blue Bird offers a harmonious interplay of fragrance, texture, and finesse—an inviting expression suited for both refined dining and relaxed enjoyment.
On the nose, it presents a gentle and elegant aroma reminiscent of ripe peaches. The palate is lightly sparkling, with a beautifully balanced interplay of soft sweetness and refreshing acidity. A delicate sweetness, similar to tender rice dumplings, spreads smoothly across the tongue, followed by a peach-like finish where richness and brightness meet in perfect harmony. The texture is polished and supple, leaving a refined and luxurious impression. It pairs wonderfully with light meats, white fish, lightly seared blue fish, squid, scallops, hot pot with fish-based broth, soy sauce or miso-seasoned dishes, and even desserts featuring fresh cream or mascarpone.
