About
A limited-quantity daiginjo. Because very little water is added to adjust the strength, the aroma and umami inherent to daiginjo come through clearly. Alcohol content is 18%. The rich mouthfeel of genshu (undiluted sake) is its defining character. A soft aroma swells on the palate while the finish stays clean, making it a light, clean-tasting daiginjo (tanrei). Sold only in 1.8-liter bottles.
