A Junmai Daiginjo made from Yamadanishiki rice from the renowned rice-growing region of Shobudani,
Tojo, Hyogo Prefecture.
Pear sherbert, acacia flower, and a hint of chervil on the nose for a refreshing sensation.
An exquisitely smooth mouthfeel,
with the elegant sweetness and umami of rice well-balanced with acidity for a penetrating and clear taste,
like natural spring water.
From the subtle aroma, floral impressions of peony, with hints of cotton candy and banana drifting together with a sense of unity.
Gentle sweetness, soft acidity, and a delicate grip on richness coming together in a tranquil balance, giving the flavor a beautiful sheen and leading to a clear, polished finish.
(Kenichi Ohashi, MW)
Gorgeous ginjo aromas of pear, melon, and white peach overflow from the glass.
Swirling the glass to aerate it like a wine brings out notes of yogurt, fresh cheese, raw chestnuts, and chestnut flowers, allowing you to enjoy the harmony of multiple layers of fragrance.
On the palate, a mellow attack and an off-dry impression. A creamy, umami-filled midpalate, with the same fruit flavors from the nose spreading across the tongue.
The aftertaste has excellent penetration, and in contract to the richness of the midpalate, ends with a delicate and clear finish.
The umami-filled creamy and rich structure of the midpalate creates even more harmony when paired with food.
It can be enjoyed with a wide variety of cuisines, but to enjoy the straight flavor of the ingredients, try pairing with sashimi, dashi-based Japanese cuisine, butter- or cream-based Western dishes, fatty Kurobuta pork shabu-shabu, or savory fried dishes like tempura.
