About
With a sake meter value (SMV) of -14 and an acidity of 2.8, this sake offers a sweetness and acidity unlike any experienced before, with a well-balanced umami and a smooth palate. The concept behind Kizan is a distinctive character that leads even one or two in ten people to say, 'This is the only one for me!' Sanban was the first sake born from the Kizan concept, a sake that goes beyond white wine.
