About

Made with Yamada Nishiki, a sake-brewing rice grown in Fukuoka Prefecture, this sake is milled in the brewery's own rice-polishing machine, which removes the parts of the grain unnecessary for brewing. The brewing water is fukuryu-sui (groundwater flowing beneath the riverbed) drawn from the Yabe River, which is rich in minerals. Using carefully selected ingredients and a meticulous process carried out by many hands, this is a luxurious sake made by collecting the shizuku (drops). The flavor is slightly dry, with a fragrant aroma and a mellow body.
