Yoneda Hon Mirin Shippou Artisanal 720ml 1219 g

This Hon Mirin is traditionally handcrafted using carefully selected glutinous rice from Shimane Prefecture and rice malt made from sake brewing rice. The moromi (fermented mash) is slowly saccharified over approximately three months and then pressed using a traditional sake press. After that, it is carefully aged until it develops a beautiful amber color and a well-balanced flavor. To preserve its natural aroma and taste, this mirin is bottled in its raw form without heat treatment. The alcohol content helps eliminate unwanted odors while the enzymatic action of the rice malt converts starch into sugars, preventing ingredients from breaking down during cooking. Rich in umami, this mirin enhances flavor and keeps dishes delicious even after they cool down. With its elegant sweetness and deep richness, yet a clean finish, it can also be enjoyed as a beverage.
