About
Made from Yamada Nishiki, a rice said to be the most suitable for sake brewing, polished down to 40% and brewed slowly over time with high-quality spring water from Ogaki, a city known as a "water city" (suito). Served chilled, it offers the fruity aroma characteristic of daiginjo, along with the richness of junmai, a clean and refreshing taste, and a gentle umami.
