About
An unfiltered, undiluted nama genshu junmai sake brewed with yamahai (traditional yeast-starter method) and made with 100% Yamada Nishiki rice. It is rich and full-bodied, with a clean finish and an exceptionally well-balanced profile, making it an excellent example of its style. Its rounded, full-bodied character is especially recommended for experienced sake drinkers. Katanosakura's basic brewing philosophy is to make each sake true to its own character (sono sake rashiku). For yamahai-style sake, the brewers work to bring out the full range of umami and acidity so that the distinctive qualities of each type of sake are expressed more clearly.
