About
Made entirely (100%) with Senbon Nishiki, a sake rice variety developed in Hiroshima Prefecture and grown in Hiroshima, and bottled in a bottle inspired by a white-walled brewery (kura). Fermented with Hiroshima Momiji yeast, a yeast strain from Hiroshima Prefecture, this is a carefully crafted Junmai Daiginjo. It offers a soft apple-like aroma and a well-balanced harmony of sweetness and acidity, making it a sake to enjoy as an aperitif. Slightly dry, it is best served chilled or at room temperature, and is also enjoyable on the rocks.
