Product details
Born in Yamagata’s storied terroir, this Extra yukimegami ("snow-goddess") expression showcases the brand’s dedication to rice innovation and regional pride. It is made exclusively from Yamagata-bred "snow-goddess" grain, polished down to an extraordinary 35 % of its original form—meeting strict local standards for purity and finish. Under the house’s Extra label, it presents a lighter, crisp personality compared to other offerings while retaining signature elegance and finesse. It must be kept chilled to preserve its delicate and luminous profile.
Offering a fragrant bouquet of white peach, polished apple, and soft berry, it opens with luminous, refined sweetness and a fresh fruit perfume. The mouthfeel is silky yet buoyant—light-bodied and less syrupy, with a fastidious balance and crisp clarity that evoke high-grade honey gracefully fading toward the end. A clean, bright finish leaves an impression of purity, structure, and subtle fruit depth—a luxurious expression of Yamagata’s finest.
