About

This pasteurized Junmai Daiginjo is made with 100% Hanaomoi, a sake rice grown in Aomori Prefecture. Pasteurization brings out vivid flavors, a mellow and smooth umami, and the rich, sweet character unique to Mutsuhassen, all of which can be enjoyed to the full. The aroma is bright and fruity, reminiscent of melon. There is also a faint, refreshing note of peppermint that is distinctive to Mutsuhassen. It has the stable richness that makes it instantly recognizable as Mutsuhassen, together with a fresh and appealing aromatic presence. We recommend serving it chilled. On the palate it is moist and smooth. A slightly refined umami spreads along with sweet, melon-like fruit flavor, while a very faint fizz adds freshness, refined acidity tightens the profile, and a clean bitterness brings out a crisp, clear vividness. The rich sweet fruitiness and citrus-like bitterness blend into a full-bodied flavor that is elegantly enjoyable without tasting sweet. As it finishes, it melts away on the tongue like a clean aftertaste. A faint bitterness lingers gently, leaving a refreshing finish.
