Product details
Nabeshima Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki is a refined expression from Fukuchiyo Shuzo in Saga Prefecture, the producer behind the Nabeshima label. The official lineup identifies this expression as a Junmai Ginjo made with Yamada Nishiki rice polished to 50%, reflecting the producer’s focus on carefully selected ingredients and a distinctive local identity. Nabeshima was introduced as a newer label by Fukuchiyo Shuzo with the aim of creating a characterful expression rooted in the region, and this Yamadanishiki bottling has become one of the brand’s standard offerings.
The profile is marked by a mild, elegant ginjo aroma and a refreshing, balanced character. Verified descriptions highlight fruity impressions reminiscent of apple, along with juicy umami and a subtle fine sparkle on the palate. Sweetness, umami, gentle acidity, and a light spicy edge come together in a clear, harmonious structure, leading to a clean and refreshing finish.
