Toki = time/moment.
A project started in 2015 when the brewery crafted a sake using a locally grown rice called Hidahomare. The resulting sake tasted incomplete, so after some maturation, further tasting and trials, the 2015 Hidahomare base was blended with some ginjo & daiginjo quality Yamadanishiki, Asahino Yume, and Omachi, as well as some honjozo and kijo-shu from 2015-2025. The resulting sake is a multi-vintage, umami-rich sake with amazing complexity and depth. This can be enjoyed at different temperatures to highlight its many nuances and can also pair with many savoury dishes, cheese, and cured meats.
Tasting Note: Expect notes of honey, candied nuts, sherry-like and spicy aromas. Good richness and great depth of flavour, the sweetness packaged nicely with some fresh acidity and a long umami-rich finish.
