About
Brewed with Miyama Nishiki, a sake rice grown in Nagano Prefecture. This "Seishu Kawanakajima" does not carry a special designation (tokutei meisho), but it is brewed with Miyama Nishiki polished to 65%. With a sake meter value of +2, it has a clear, smooth flavor that pairs well with almost any dish. It offers clean umami and a crisp, dry finish. When warmed, it becomes even more approachable, with a pleasant, easy drinking character. Tonight's evening drink is sure to be something to look forward to.
