What is Mogitate Yuzu no Touketsu-shu?
Mogitate Yuzu no Touketsu-shu is an alcoholic beverage that brings the taste of freshly harvested yuzu straight from the orchard into your home. To capture the maximum freshness of raw yuzu, the fruit is processed into sake as quickly as possible after picking, bottled while still fresh, and then frozen for storage. When customers thaw the bottle before drinking, they can recreate the aroma and flavor of freshly picked yuzu at home.
The Appeal of Mogitate Yuzu no Touketsu-shu
Premium Hozumi Yuzu Selected
The yuzu used in this product comes from the Hozumi district of Fujikawa-cho, Yamanashi Prefecture. This region has a long history of yuzu cultivation, and the fruit grown here is known as "Hozumi Yuzu" for its exceptional fragrance and quality. This sake makes luxurious use of these prized yuzu.
Bringing Out Fresh Yuzu's Natural Charm
The creator behind Mogitate Yuzu no Touketsu-shu is Shirayuri Brewing, a winery in Yamanashi Prefecture. To fully highlight the appeal of locally grown Yamanashi yuzu, various techniques are employed during production. By steeping Hozumi yuzu peel in the sake, they draw out deep, vibrant aromas and a subtle bitterness. To add richness and depth to the flavor, they use the winery's signature wine as a base, leveraging their years of expertise to the fullest.
Fresh, Raw Flavor Made Possible by Frozen Delivery
The sake is made from freshly picked raw yuzu and skips the typical heat pasteurization step in brewing, locking in the fresh taste directly in the bottle. Through frozen delivery, customers can thaw the product themselves right before drinking and enjoy the fresh aroma and flavor unique to raw yuzu.
