About

This Junmai Ginjo is made using kimoto-zukuri (the kimoto method, a traditional yeast-starter method handed down since the Edo period). Through complex steps and more than twice the usual time, natural lactic acid bacteria and yeast are cultivated and allowed to ferment. Kimoto brewing gives a rich, deep body and a clean, smooth finish, and the sake can be enjoyed chilled or warmed, according to preference.
