About
It offers a deep, full-bodied flavor that still finishes cleanly, showing the appeal of an "aji ginjo" (a ginjo style that emphasizes flavor). This sake is meant above all to be savored on its own, with the sake as the main focus. If choosing food to pair with it, look for dishes that highlight the natural ingredients and have a light flavor, such as those made with a clear dashi broth. "The red box has arrived again this year." This is a proud creation from Umenishiki that seems to bring to mind the voices of many customers saying just that.
