About
It is very clean and elegant, with a firm richness and rice umami on the palate. Along with its gentle acidity, it finishes cleanly. Shimesaba (vinegar-cured mackerel) is an excellent accompaniment. A Tokubetsu Junmai made with Yamada Nishiki. Given its specifications, the price is an exceptional bargain. For this reason, stock may sell out quickly, so please enjoy it early.
