Product details
Ryusei Black Label is crafted with a clear intention: to be the centerpiece of the dining table, where depth of flavor and refinement walk hand in hand. Made exclusively from the classic Yamada Nishiki rice, this expression carefully draws out a harmonious balance of sweetness, savory depth, and acidity. The style is confident yet restrained, designed to complement food rather than compete with it. Subtle aromas reminiscent of ripe fruit rise gently, while the generous rice character and naturally derived sweetness create layers and structure. The result is a poised, full-bodied profile that combines strength with grace, making it exceptionally versatile with richly seasoned cuisine.
The aroma remains understated, offering a soft, elegant lift rather than overt intensity. On the palate, rounded umami derived from Yamada Nishiki spreads gradually, supported by supple acidity that adds clarity and shape. The texture is thick yet smooth, delivering a sense of volume and presence without heaviness. Served chilled, the profile feels crisp and focused, while pairing with sweet-savory dishes brings added depth to the finish. Particularly well suited to boldly flavored foods such as sukiyaki, simmered meat and potatoes, or glazed eel, this expression stands out with quiet confidence throughout the meal.
