This junmai daiginjo uses Yamada Nishiki produced in Hyogo prefecture and polished all the way to a 35% ratio. The sake mash is processed in the fukurozuri and the tobingakoi method, in which the mash is placed in bags and the sake that drips out of the bags are collected in 18 liter bottles and matured. Maturing at a low temperature over a long period allows the sake to develop a fresh aroma like that of sweet, high quality apples, and a light, crisp nodogoshi (feel on the throat) like pure water. The aroma that passes through the nose is also pleasant. This is indeed a well-balanced, exceptional sake.
