Product details
Sawanotsuru Minume Junmai Daiginjo reflects the heritage of Sawanotsuru, founded in 1717 in Nada, Hyogo Prefecture, a region renowned for its traditional rice-based craftsmanship. Named after Minume, a historic area associated with the region’s production heritage, this distinguished expression is crafted exclusively from Hyogo-grown Yamada Nishiki rice, polished to 45%, and natural Miyamizu water from the Rokko Mountain range. The traditional kimoto method is central to its creation, carefully developing the rice’s natural character while preserving the producer’s time-honored approach. The result is a refined expression that brings together depth, richness, and aromatic elegance, reflecting the distinctive character of Sawanotsuru’s craftsmanship.
Sawanotsuru Minume Junmai Daiginjo offers a rich yet refreshing profile, with pronounced rice character and an elegant, forest-like fragrance. Its harmonious combination of depth and refinement makes it a versatile accompaniment to dishes that highlight the natural flavors of their ingredients. Enjoy it with salt-grilled sweetfish, wild vegetable tempura, scallop carpaccio, avocado and shrimp salad, bang bang chicken, or fresh spring rolls.
