About
In 2017, Fukucho Junmai Daiginjo 50 received a high score of 90 points on the Parker Points scale from Robert Parker, the American wine critic. He described it as: "An exceptionally smooth and charming sake. Clear, pure and unclouded on the palate. Creamy in structure, with a mineral-tinged, spicy and long finish." Its flavor and crisp finish reveal the character of Hattanso rice, and this junmai daiginjo evokes the land of Hiroshima from long ago. Each bottle of this genshu (undiluted sake) is drawn directly from the press (chokugumi), carefully pasteurized in the bottle and stored in the bottle, so it retains the fresh flavor of freshly pressed sake.
