About

A faintly suspended moromi (fermentation mash) gives it a beauty like light snow drifting over Shinshu. The clarity and delicacy honed by the cold of winter combine with the bold strength characteristic of genshu (undiluted sake). A vibrant, lively vitality makes this a quintessential early-spring bottle.
