About

Its refined aroma and dry character bring out the sturdy body and lively acidity typical of yamahai (a traditional yeast-starter method that relies on naturally produced lactic acid), resulting in a flavor that stays satisfying sip after sip. The palate carries a moderate ginjo aroma, and this daiginjo improves when warmed to lukewarm (nurukan).
