About

Matsuyama Mii (まつやまみい), a rice from Ehime that is not a sake rice but is easy to make koji with and suited to low-temperature ginjo brewing, is polished to 50% and brewed with Kochi yeast AC95 to make this junmai ginjo sake. Conceived as a food sake that enriches the dinner table, it aims for a junmai ginjo that pairs well with meals and stays enjoyable glass after glass. Its aroma combines a lively opening (uwadachi) with a balanced sense of body, and it expresses the umami of rice without heaviness. When there is a special dish to look forward to, or when you want to unwind after a casual day, this sake will be a fine supporting player at the table.
