About

Its color is so captivating that it is hard to look away: a brilliant amber yellow-gold that shines in a crystal bottle. The aroma is gentle, yet hints of dried apricot and candied apple can be detected. The drinking experience is smooth and rich on the palate, with a deep, well-defined umami that spreads through the mouth. The finish, however, is light and crisp, with a clean aftertaste. Made with Shichidan-jikomi brewing, this sake is a truly special expression, deepened by the umami of the rice and the time spent in aging.
