About
Brewed slowly and carefully at low temperatures under the hand of Ogawa, a master ginjo brewer and toji (master brewer), this sake is finished as a true masterpiece. Made with only rice and rice koji, it showcases the natural umami of the rice together with the rich aroma that comes from ginjo-style brewing, giving it a fuller and more substantial character than an everyday sake.
