Product details
Oni No Shitaburui is a bold creation from the Okuizumo region of Shimane, an area known for its pristine environment and deep cultural roots. Its name, meaning “The Trembling Tongue of the Demon,” is inspired by the legendary Shitaburui “Love” Suspension Bridge near the famous Oni no Shitōiwa rock, a place tied to tales of demons testing their blades. This expression reflects that same decisive character—clean, sharp, and confident—crafted to stand up to rich, full-flavored cuisine while delivering a remarkably crisp and precise impression. The result is a classic, dry-style profile that highlights clarity, balance, and a smooth, decisive finish.
On the palate, Oni No Shitaburui opens with a straightforward, refreshing entry, followed by gentle savory notes and subtle grain sweetness. Its defining feature is a clean-cut, dry finish that swiftly clears the palate, much like a blade slicing cleanly through stone. This makes it an ideal match for dishes with higher oil or seasoning, as it refreshes the mouth without lingering heaviness. The overall experience is smooth, focused, and satisfying, leaving a crisp aftertaste that invites the next bite.
