About
Brewed with Yamaguchi Sakura yeast (a yeast strain) isolated from cherry blossoms, this sake has a gentle flavor like cherry blossoms. It is well suited to the cherry blossom viewing season. Enjoy it chilled. Yamaguchi Sakura yeast was isolated from cherry blossoms and cultivated by the Yamaguchi Prefectural Industrial Technology Center, which wondered what kind of sake could be brewed with a yeast from cherry blossoms.
