Polished to 39% as a nama junmai daiginjo, this sake should show pronounced ginjo aroma. The SMV of -5 and low acidity of 1.1 give a softly sweet impression, while the unpasteurized genshu character adds some weight without making it heavy.

Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.

About

Made with Yamada Nishiki, a sake rice, polished to 39%. The rice is steamed in a koshiki (traditional steaming vessel), and the koji is made in koji-buta (wooden koji trays). The yeast is the Nagano yeast, prized for its excellent ginjo aroma and refined flavor. The genshu is not filtered by racking off the lees (ori-biki) and is bottled as namazume, unpasteurized. Because it has not been heat-pasteurized (hiire), it is stored and distributed at low temperatures.
