Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake

About
This Junmai Ginjo makes the most of the qualities of Omachi rice. It is pasteurized twice (hiire) and then left to mature slowly. It has a fragrant bouquet reminiscent of pear-like fruit and a light, clean palate (tanrei) that goes down smoothly.
