About
Yamada Nishiki (山田錦), said to be the finest sake rice, is polished to a rice polishing ratio of 30%. The brewery uses naturally occurring water of very soft hardness (14), and this sake is crafted with Hiroshima's traditional techniques. The brewery was the first in the country to develop ginjo brewing, and this daiginjo is a true expression of that tradition, reaching a level that can be called ultimate. Yokoyama Taikan praised Suishin, saying, "Sake from Suishin is a form of art." The sake has an elegant, floral aroma, and its sweetness spreads gently across the palate.
