About

A junmai daiginjo with a dignified character, made from 100% contract-grown Yamada Nishiki rice from the Special A district. The soft, full-bodied qualities of Yamada Nishiki combine gracefully with the umami of the natural environment and terroir of Oze, resulting in an elegant flavor. The umami expands pleasantly on the palate, and the sake has a pleasing clean finish that lets you savor the lingering aftertaste. Served chilled in a wine glass or another vessel with a wide opening, it brings out a more fruity aroma and flavor.
