Product details
A hallmark release from a revered family house, this limited expression reflects nearly two decades of dedicated agricultural and cellar research. The producers cultivated a proprietary rice variety over 18 years—a careful cross of two celebrated strains—then refined the grain through intensive polishing to reach an exceptionally pure core. The result is an elevated, museum-quality bottle that balances meticulous craft with an almost lyrical sense of restraint: pristine, elegant, and unmistakably rare. It’s presented with the kind of poise that makes it welcome both as the centerpiece of a special tasting and as a graceful companion to refined dining.
On the nose it opens with crystalline fruit — white peach, honeydew and crisp Fuji apple — layered with an airy floral lift. The mouthfeel is satin-smooth and lightly sweet at the outset, then reveals fine mineral threads and lively acidity that keep the profile buoyant and focused. Flavors glide into a long, harmonious close where sweetness and briskness meet, leaving a lingering impression of finesse and balance rather than force. This is a refined, expressive pour that showcases layered fruit character, polished texture, and an enduring, composed finish.
