About

Sake rice must be milled slowly and carefully so that the grains do not crack, and this is especially important for Junmai Daiginjo. Misatonishiki, a medium-hard sake rice, has grains that are relatively resistant to cracking, which is an advantage in this respect. The aroma is moderate, and together with the softness of the brewing water, it makes a sake that rewards slow, unhurried tasting.
