Product details
Dainagawa Golden Tiger Yamadanishiki Junmai Daiginjo is a refined expression created to celebrate the strength, beauty, and elegance symbolized by the Year of the Tiger. Crafted by Dainagawa using premium Yamada Nishiki rice polished to 45% and the producer’s signature Ginjo-style house yeast, it reflects a careful approach to ingredient selection and craftsmanship. Following Akita’s approach of low-temperature fermentation and extended cold maturation, Golden Tiger highlights the character of Tenka, meaning “Heavenly Flowers,” a name inspired by the region’s large, delicate snowflakes. Its distinctive golden tiger presentation complements the elegant character of this carefully crafted release.
The Golden Tiger offers an expressive aromatic profile with elegant notes of pineapple, lychee, and shortbread, balanced by disciplined richness and refined complexity. Its fragrant character and structured depth make it a distinctive choice for pairing with simmered yellowtail with daikon radish, fatty fish sashimi, or Mimolette cheese.
