This sake is made in one of the few breweries that produces only Junmai Ginjo & Daiginjo grade sake. The owner, Touda Masahiko, is also the master brewer (toji), a rare dual role in today's Japanese sake industry.
Tasting Note: Soft, honey-laced nose with just a tad of fruitiness. Dry overall, but with a sweet element creeping out of the background. Good richness and overall balance in a slightly dry profile.
