About
A Junmai Daiginjo made from the rare premium sake rice Hyogo Yumenishiki (兵庫夢錦), polished carefully and brewed slowly over a long period at low temperature. The aroma is sweet and rich, like well-ripened fruit. The smooth, full-bodied flavor brings to mind Nagajuro pear (a Japanese pear variety) and apricot. It pairs well with the savory, toasted aroma and rich flavor of gratin.
