Product details
Makiri Draft Extra Dry is a rare seasonal release that appears only once each winter, capturing the energy and immediacy of a true “new brew” from Shinshu. Drawn straight from the tank and offered in very limited quantities, this draft-style expression is presented in its most natural state, untouched by heat treatment and dilution. The result is a bold yet precise profile that highlights freshness, clarity, and vitality. Makiri is known for its sharp, modern character, and this winter-only bottling showcases the house’s dedication to timing, restraint, and purity, delivering a vivid snapshot of the season at its peak.
On the palate, it is crisp and brisk with a distinctly dry impression, offering clean lines and a refreshing flow. Subtle grain sweetness appears briefly before giving way to a sharp, polished finish that resets the senses. Its lively texture and clarity make it an excellent companion for sushi and sashimi, where it refreshes the palate between bites and enhances overall enjoyment. Bright, focused, and invigorating, this limited draft release is designed for those who appreciate immediacy and precision in every sip.
