About

A junmai sake that pursues deliciousness achieved through the brewing itself, not just the rice polishing ratio. The rice umami is rich, yet the aroma is glossy and refined. The flavor shifts in expression from time to time, a quality that comes from "Iwai" (祝) rice, which easily dissolves into the moromi (fermentation mash). No filtration is performed at all, and depending on the timing of bottling, some rice components may remain in the bottle. Namazake carries the lively vitality of living yeast directly to the palate. Please try this junmai sake, born from careful brewing.
