A 50% polished junmai daiginjo whose strong umami and deep, full-bodied texture in the description outweigh its ginjo aroma, placing it in the juku zone. SMV +4 and acidity 1.5 suggest a moderately dry, softly rounded finish.

About

Taste: Compared with Tojo Yamada Nishiki, the first sip feels softer. Firm umami gradually comes through on the palate. Recommended serving: Warmed to jokan (about 45°C) and paired with simmered fish. Made with rice from Miki City (former Yokawa-cho) in Hyogo Prefecture, where Yamada Nishiki was developed and which is designated as one of the Tokutei A (special A-grade) rice districts, a grade for rice of particularly good quality. Rich in umami, it grows deeper with each sip and can be enjoyed like a full-bodied wine. Release period: September through year-end.
