Gin no Sei (Sake)

Gin no Sei is a rice type that is used to create sake wine. Many different brands feature the Gin No Sei rice variety and it is used in a handful of various sake wines. The sakes that use the Gin No Sei rice variety are typically crafted in the Akita prefecture. Since the methods of sake brewing are ever-changing, these changes have allowed sake to be produced in new ways, thus increasing the quality of sake. Although the Timeless Wines Koshiki Junzukuri wine sticks to the label of brewing sake the old fashioned way, many breweries are choosing to adapt to new methods. The Akitabare brewery crafts sakes the old fashioned way and their sakes typically cater to sake lovers and experienced wine drinkers. These wines are aromatic and have a very unique taste, since they have been crafted according to tradition. The Amanoto wine from the Asamai Shuzo brewery also is brewed in the Akita prefecture, along with Dewatsuru Sakura Emaki, Manabito, Yuki no Bosha, and Beni Mansaku sake wines. Each one of these sake wines has a unique and distinct taste due to different brewing methods, but the wines have been crafted from the Gin no Sei rice type.
