About
A Junmai Ginjo sake brewed using only highly polished Miyama Nishiki rice and rice koji (malted rice). It has rich aromas of yellow peach and syrup, while a moderate, well-spread acidity and bitterness tighten the whole and keep the balance. It pairs well with Japanese cuisine, and is also recommended with thickened Chinese dishes such as sweet and sour pork (subuta). Please enjoy its light, clean taste and aroma.
