About
Rich, mellow sweetness and umami derived from koji, along with an elegant acidity, define this sake. It can be enjoyed in many ways, such as on the rocks, with soda, or with fruit floated in the glass. Because it is well suited to long aging, it can also be matured at home, allowing you to watch it gradually deepen into a rich amber color. As the bottle carries a vintage year, it is also purchased to mark celebrations such as the birth of a child or coming of age.
