About

A Junmai Ginjo that draws out the umami of the rice while showing a crisp, clean finish. [Message from the Toji (master brewer)] While fully embracing the vibrant character of modern styles, this sake is brewed to draw out the umami of the rice, drawing on the Showa-era ginjo style that is part of our brewing repertoire. Aroma and flavor harmonize pleasantly, making it an easy companion to a wide range of meals. It is a "flavorful ginjo" that is distinctly Kamikawa Taisetsu. We invite you to enjoy it with your favorite sakana (dishes served alongside sake).
