This sake is crafted in one of a few but growing number of breweries where the brewery owner is also the master brewer (toji). Yasutaka Daimon's pride of ownership shows through in the quality of his sake. Brewed with premium Yamada Nishiki rice.
Tasting Notes: This mellow and round sake reveals cacao powder notes and a sandalwood bouquet on the nose. Soft on the palate with gentle acidity that puts the accent on the light spice of white pepper and cedar-like flavors, the finish is clean but encompassing. The overall dryness of this sake calls for food.
