This daiginjo represents Aichi prefecture.
In the recent years, it's won a total of eleven Gold Medals at the Annual Japan Sake Awards. It uses Hyogo prefecture's Yamada Nishiki, which is polished to a 40% ratio, then fermented at a low temperature for a long time. One will smell the sweet aroma, then taste the dryness before a crisp finish. It's great as a gift.
