Kijoshu is a luxurious and distinctive style of sake, first crafted in 1973 as a response to European wines. What sets Kijoshu apart is its unique brewing method: rather than adding water during fermentation like traditional sake, it incorporates previously brewed sake. This results in a richer, sweeter, and more complex flavor, often with notes of honey, caramel, and dried fruits. Best enjoyed chilled or slightly warmed, Kijoshu’s natural sweetness makes it an elegant aperitif or a perfect pairing for desserts. It also complements dark chocolate, salty nuts, and fruit-based dishes, and can even be used in cocktails for a sophisticated twist.
