Named for the legendary swordsman and wood-carver, Hidari Jingoro, this honjozo is a slightly dry sake with a soft, sweet aroma derived from rice. It has a mellow taste and a strong rice flavor. It goes down smoothly and is refreshing. Afterwards, you can feel a slight aftertaste of rice.

A sip of this sake brings the same intensity, dryness and clarity as that of a crisp wind. This palate cleansing quality and a hidden but ever-present umami make this brew the Kikusui Sake Company's most highly recommended sake to enjoy with food. A fun suggestion is to experience this sake anew with the passing of each season - try chilling the sake in summer, warming it in winter, and matching it to a wide berth of your favorite seasonal dishes.

The name “Michinoku Onikoroshi” comes from the phrase “dry enough to kill demons”. Extremely dry sake with +10 dryness level. Delicious at any temperature – the brisk taste is highlighted when chilled and, when warmed up, it becomes more mellow. Great with a wide range of dishes.

Enjoy the balance and earthy richness and aroma of this sake. A soft mouthfeel invites you to drink more, and enjoy its easy-going nature. The most important flavor note would be: freshly steamed rice. That is the ultimate goal, always.
