Winemaker Notes

Flawless yet incredibly persistent. The purity of the region of Yamagata shines in this sake, with the crispness of their pristine water, the grassy, spicy quality of dewasansan rice, and the opulent textures derived from shizuku free run finishing.

Refreshing and pure with notes of pineapple, white peach, green apple, lily and a hint of white pepper.

Excellent paired with smoked salmon and cream cheese or salad.

Saké with the highest milling requirement at 50%, so that 50% of each grain of rice remains unmilled, is called Junmai Daiginjo. It is, just like Junmai and Junmai Ginjo, made up solely of water, koji mold, yeast and rice with no addition of alcohol. Since the categories of saké are determined by milling requirement (not rice variety), this is one of the most premium categories, along with Daiginjo. Pair Jumai Daiginjo with lighter fare such as sashimi or steamed fish.
