About

It may not appeal to everyone, but few other sake share its flavor. The palate is soft yet distinctive, with a full, thick body. It does not have the floral aroma or crisp palate of a ginjo sake. Dry yet rich in the umami of rice, it finishes with a clean cut, followed by a mellow body and deep flavor.

A sake for experienced drinkers, best enjoyed with food.
