About
Made with Hinohikari, a sake rice grown locally in Oita Prefecture and polished to 50%, this junmai sake offers a well-balanced intertwining of acidity and umami. Rich and deeply dry, it grows more appealing with every sip and invites an exquisite drinking experience. Serving it chilled is recommended.
