The name \"Chochin\" means \"long cherished rarity,\" reflecting the family's aspiration to create sake treasured across generations. This exceptional \"5055\" expression is aged for six months to allow its bold, brash character to mellow into harmonious complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGentle aromas of peach, mango, and cream lead to a palate of tropical fruit juiciness balanced by a bitterness reminiscent of dark chocolate. The full-bodied texture carries bright fruit tones and subtle rice sweetness over a structured core with pronounced dryness and soft acidity. The rich yet composed mouthfeel culminates in a clean, focused finish that highlights its refined balance and continues to evolve beautifully with additional aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFood Pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteamed mussels, Japanese and Western cuisine, Desserts and cheese platters, Fresh seafood and sashimi\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yamada Nishiki (50%) and Hattan Nishiki (55%)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aichi, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tsushima City, Aichi Prefecture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e NV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Fifth Taste","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50526900027639,"sku":"52246bb1-9fe6-4f7b-8af3-b21f9205994e","price":37.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0883\/2932\/2743\/files\/chochin-5055-muroka-nama-genshu-junmai-ginjo-nv-aichi.png?v=1772567837","url":"https:\/\/swirloncastro.myshopify.com\/products\/chochin-5055-muroka-nama-genshu","provider":"Swirl on Castro Wine Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
