About

"Yakimare Daiginjo" is made with Yamada Nishiki, the sake rice regarded as best suited to brewing, grown in Yokawa-cho, which lies in the Special A district. The rice is polished to 35% and fermented slowly at low temperature, resulting in a vibrant daiginjo with a fruity aroma and a crisp, clean finish.
