About
A heavy yet graceful ginjo aroma harmonizes with a refined sweetness. Mellow, melting umami and a lingering aftertaste that spreads after the sake passes down the throat are its hallmarks. Enjoy this rich and fragrant sake, with the dignity and presence of a true pinnacle. IWC 2018 and 2019 Silver Medal winner
