About

Made with Yamada Nishiki, the finest sake rice, grown in Hyogo Prefecture and polished to a rice polishing ratio of 50%, this Junmai Daiginjo is brewed slowly at low temperatures using Kumamoto yeast. Its powerful, rich flavor lets the umami of the rice come through, while its crisp, clean throat feel draws out the best in food and invites you to keep enjoying cup after cup.
