SHIRAYUKI SAKE (RICE WINE)
"SHIRAYUKI" SAKE was first produced in 1550 in the district of NADA(near
Kobe) which has long been famed as the home of SAKE. The Sakes brewed
there have enjoyed the public appreciation as the best of all as noted
by traditional adage, "NADA-NO KI-IPPON" in Japanese that means "NADA's,
the Purest".
We may well say that NADA is to Sake what SCOTLAND is to Whisky, COGNAC
to Brandy and MUNICH to Beer. NADA owes its intrinsic prominence in brewing
to "MIYAMIZU," the Divine Water which is obtained from the shallow underground
flow of water infiltrated through the layers of sand and shells while
coming down from the granite hills of Rokko Mountains; it is of the superb
and incomparable quality for brewing Sake with. Moreover, the best quality
of rice suitable for the brewing is harvested in the local fields.
The
longevity of a brand as of "SHIRAYUKI" for over four centuries, however,
does mean so much of an exception and a distinction even in NADA. It is
for the Brewery's firm conviction and tireless effort that awarded them
with such a splendid fortune as theirs. Although it has been an established
habit with the Japanese to drink Sake warmed up moderately by putting
the small pot of it in hot water for some minutes, thanks to the improved
modern method of brewing, it has become a very fine enjoyment to take
it chilled or use it as the base for Cocktails with other liquors as well
as "On the Rocks."
