The selection is based upon 'entry-level' tasting qualities and maker qualities equivalent to that of the natural winemakers that we represent. The range is solely Junmai or ‘Pure Rice’ sake, made without added ethyl alcohol or other additions. There is also an extensive range of flavour profiles thanks to a large spectrum of polishing rates (of the rice hull). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"heiwa-shuzo-nigori-umeshu","title":"Heiwa Shuzo - Nigori Umeshu","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Nigori Umeshu is crafted with Nankō Ume fruit from Wakayama, with the pulp from the macerated fruit added for extra texture.

This ‘slow and low’ ferment creates freshness with body in the resultant Sake. Masahiro-san also utilises yeast strain Akita #4, sourced directly from the the Sake brewery where the yeast originated, to produce higher malic acid level which creates fresh apple notes and vibrant acidity in the Sake. The Mannen is made with the signature Kirei techniques of small quantities of rice in the Kōji room that are kept for in for a longer period of time while still being checked every 2 hours. The Mannen is also made with a slow pressing technique that results in less liquid yet a more delicate and refined quality. The palate is powerful with a spicy, mineral character with soft sweet fruit. The finish is dry with refreshing acidity. - Black Market Sake. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mannen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46167123198205,"sku":"24502","price":80.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/6754\/4640\/files\/Winona-Wine-Mannen-Kirei-Shuzo-Mannen-SAKE.png?v=1779850973"}],"url":"https:\/\/checkout.notwasted.com.au\/collections\/sake.oembed","provider":"NOTWASTED","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
