About

Matured at a constant, ideal temperature of 9°C, this sake develops complex, concentrated aromas and deep richness. On the palate, layered flavors and a smooth texture lead to a long finish. It expresses a character unlike any previous release from Kamikawa Taisetsu Sake Brewery. It can be enjoyed chilled, at room temperature, or warmed to nurukan (gently warmed), pairing well not only with Japanese cuisine but also with spiced dishes. Ingredients: rice flour (Hokkaido-grown rice), rice koji (Hokkaido-grown rice) Sake rice: Nayoro-grown Suisei 100%
