Kun-shu — aromatic and light

About
Chiyonosono Shuzo has polished the rice to a rice polishing ratio of 35%, one of the highest polishing levels among brewed sake, for a more refined flavor. By adopting the "bin-gakoi" (bottle enclosure) method, which uses wine bottles and cork stoppers, a distinctive bottle aging is achieved. Its vibrant aroma and soft mouthfeel are so gentle that one might wonder whether it is really sake. We recommend enjoying it from a wine glass.
