Jozen “Autumn”
Niigata prefecture
Smooth, velvety and full-bodied
The Koshitanrei rice used to brew Jozen’s fall seasonal sake gives it body, but also provides the clean, mineral flavor for which the brand is known. Fruity notes deepen and become more savory when warmed, making it a natural companion for richer dishes, such as grilled saury and autumn vegetables. Only pasteurized once, its mellow flavors continue to mature in-bottle, so you can even wait until winter to enjoy it with oden!
