Product details
Juyondai Nakadori Daiginjo Yamadanishiki is a celebrated release from Juyondai, one of Japan’s most revered names for refined rice-based creations. Produced by the historic Takahashi Shuzo in Yamagata Prefecture, this limited expression highlights exceptional ingredients and meticulous handcraft. The rice used is the prized Yamadanishiki rice sourced from Hyogo Prefecture’s renowned Special A growing area and polished to an extraordinary level to reveal its pure core. Carefully prepared using traditional koji cultivation with a lid-style method and a long, cool fermentation guided by local Yamagata yeast, only the most refined middle portion of the press is selected. The result is an elegant and rare release admired by collectors and enthusiasts for its precision, purity, and expressive character.
On the palate, Juyondai Nakadori Daiginjo Yamadanishiki offers remarkable finesse and aromatic depth. A graceful bouquet unfolds with notes reminiscent of ripe pear, white peach, and delicate floral accents, leading into a silky texture that glides smoothly across the palate. The flavor profile is layered yet balanced, combining gentle sweetness with refined clarity and a lingering, polished finish. Subtle fruit nuances and a pristine rice character remain long after each sip, creating a luxurious and memorable tasting experience that pairs beautifully with delicately prepared dishes and refined Japanese cuisine.
