味道與品牌定位 / Flavor and brand vision
金冠黑松是村重酒造最基本的酒款，亦是各酒款中最具歷史的。此酒款備有傳統山口縣酒的甘甜味及突出的“旨味”鮮味。
Kinkan Kuromatsu is Murashige Shuzo’s standard label, and the most traditional of its lineup. It brings traditional Yamaguchi sweetness to big-boned umami-forward sake.
釀製技術與風格 / Techniques and style
由於村重酒造團隊的變化，最近削減了產量變得較專注於使用酵母。Eight Knot系列所選用的酵母是非常罕見的8號酵母。村重酒造的其他生產線則使用山口9E酵母，至在釀製出具特式的本地口味。
Murashige Shuzo has recently cut back on production due to a change in brewing team, and has refocused on yeast—its Eight Knot series uses the very rare #8 strain of yeast, and the Murashige line focuses on the Yamaguchi-only #9E to help create unique local flavors.
材料 / Ingredients
村重酒造的米是來自山口縣。因應不同酒款類別，水分別採用“錦川”的超軟地下水及鄰近湧泉的硬水。
Murashige Shuzo sources its rice in Yamaguchi, and uses both super-soft water from the Nishiki river’s underground aquifer and hard water from a nearby natural spring for a variety of different styles.
推薦飲用溫度及食物配對提示 / Recommended temperatures and pairing
金冠黑松的味道很濃郁，適合冷飲，加冰飲用亦可。若加熱飲用則可大大提升其“旨味”鮮味。亦可配以濃味的肉類料理。
Kinkan Kuromatsu is a very full-flavored sake, so it can be enjoyed chilled or even over ice. Warming it up brings out a big hit of umami, as well.Try it with rich meat dishes.
