About

Kimoto (traditional yeast-starter method) is a traditional brewing method in which yeast is cultivated by hand, making use of natural forces. Made with only rice and rice koji, this kimoto junmai is a full-bodied, rich, dry sake. Served chilled (hiya), it is crisp and clean, and when warmed (kan), its flavor swells and deepens. Its character shifts with temperature, so we encourage you to enjoy how it changes across the temperature range.
