When thinking of swans, one might think of a delicate and pure white bird usually floating on ponds. The Toji (Master Brewer) at Shirasugi used a vibrant white table rice variety, Milky-Queen, to craft this very subtle sake.

Description

The black then comes from using only Black Koji, usually used in the production of Shochu (a distilled Japanese alcohol resembling vodka).

And from this uncommon crafting combination, a Black Swan was born. Be reassure, this isn’t bad omen, but rather a very interesting sake that pushes the boundaries to new horizons. Pungent touches of rice are coupled with a bitter-sweet aftertaste, which results in a great astonishment in your mouth.

Great to be enjoyed as is, but also by mixing soda or sparkling water.
