火入れ純米酒
Pasteurised Junmai Sake

We are delighted to offer reservations for 火入れ純米酒 (Hiire Junmai Shu), or Pasteurised Junmai Sake—an exclusive addition to our hidden sake collection. This versatile sake can be enjoyed chilled or as atsukan (hot sake), making it a perfect choice for the winter season. If you’re interested, don’t miss out, as this sake will not be reproduced for public availability.

Why Did We Pasteurise Our Still Sake This Time?

This experiment is part of our ongoing efforts to deepen our understanding of the still (base) sake that serves as the foundation of our sparkling sake.

By analysing the base from multiple perspectives, we aim to uncover new insights and achieve even greater quality. Crafting sake, after all, is as much an art as it is a science. We place immense value on the discoveries that come from sensory exploration—findings that cannot be fully realised through recipes or simulations alone.

This sake invites you on a journey of exploration and comparison with our sparkling sake, as both are crafted using the same ingredients. Its flavour profile transforms with serving temperature, from chilled to hot, offering a truly unique sensory experience.
