About
Years of striving to make the finest sake every year have refined the craft of the kurabito (brewers). For this sake, carefully selected Yamada Nishiki and Gohyakumangoku rice was polished to 45%. Everything is made with handcrafted koji, and it is brewed with Raiden-sama no Shimizu, a spring where snowmelt from Hakkaisan wells up. This Daiginjo has a fine, mellow, and clean flavor, with a subtle, refined sweetness that complements food. It is a slightly premium sake for pairing with meals.
