More tasting info

This junmai sake is brewed with Yamagata yeast for lively acidity, and is slowly matured at low temperatures for a rich, smooth, and precise flavor. Made using traditional kimoto techniques, it offers a powerful yet elegant profile that deepens with 20 years of aging. Awarded gold in the 2022 Warm Sake Contest, its quality transcends temperatures; it’s perfect on the rocks, straight, gently warmed, or even as a sparkling highball.
