Listen "Sake Spotlight: Yamaguchi"
Episode Synopsis
Episode 129. This week we focus our spotlight on sake and stories from another prefecture: Yamaguchi! Well known in Japan as the home to the poisonous but delicious Fugu (Japanese blowfish aka pufferfish), there are a number of outstanding breweries in the Prefecture. Located on the far western tip of Japan's main Honshu island, Yamaguchi is not close to Tokyo, but does have easy access to Hiroshima. To dip our toe into the wide world of Yamaguchi sake, we taste the stunning Gangi Mizunowa Junmai Ginjo. This expressive and fruity brew elegantly layers pineapple, mango and a whisper of floral notes to create a silky smooth and enjoyable aroma and flavor. But does it pair with Fugu? Listen in and discover a bit of what Yamaguchi sake has to offer. #sakerevolutionSupport the show
