More tasting info

This junmai from Niigata prefecture is an easy-to-drink companion for simple, traditional Japanese fare. Its harmonious blend of umami, rice sweetness, and acidity pairs well with the likes of sushi and yakitori. Its smooth, mineral-like impression and dry finish make you want to keep coming back for the next sip. Appreciate the clean yet full flavor of this undiluted sake made from 100% Gohyakumangoku rice.
