We do not know the polishing ratio of Kojimaya Untitled #1. As the name “Untitled” suggests there is an openness intended to shift our thinking away from a rigid notion of sake ranking as we know it. At the same time, the brewery draws inspiration from its nearly five-hundred-year history in the development of Kojimaya Untitled #1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing the Yodan-Shikomi (four-stage) brewing method, the brewery creates its own interpretation of the historic Kijoshu style, in which sake is added instead of water in the third and final stage. For Kojimaya Untitled #1, rice and water are added in the first three stages, after which sake is added in the fourth and final stage of the brewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a complex, rich, and light sake containing only 13% alcohol. The brewery’s aim was also to create a flavorful sake with lower alcohol content that can be enjoyed in the same way sake was historically consumed before industrialization, when the alcohol content was significantly lower. This is a truly special sake that will surprise most experienced drinkers and a sake that always creates a lot of excitement at our sake tastings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hazy, bluish tint\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma\u003c\/strong\u003e: Koji rice, creamy, fresh, beeswax\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e: White grapes, sweet spice, vanilla, mineral tingle, menthol at the back of the mouth, lush, rounded sweetness, mild\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood pairing\u003c\/strong\u003e: Enjoy Kojimaya Untitled as a digestif after a meal, or with soft cheeses such as\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServing temperature: Best served slightly chilled, around 12 degrees.
