Product details
Shunnouten Junmai Daiginjo is crafted by Shunnouten, a historic producer rooted in Yamanashi Prefecture, where dedication to quality and local ingredients has been passed down through generations. This expression is made exclusively from locally cultivated Yamada Nishiki rice grown under contract farming agreements, ensuring consistency and a strong connection to the region. The rice is carefully polished in-house to 50%, allowing the natural character of the grain to shine through with remarkable purity and refinement. Elegant and balanced, it showcases a delicate aromatic profile and a clean, polished finish that reflects meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to traditional craftsmanship.
On the palate, Shunnouten Junmai Daiginjo presents subtle floral and fruit-forward aromas followed by a smooth, crisp texture and a refreshing, well-defined savory character. Its clean finish lingers gently, creating a harmonious and approachable experience that remains light and refined from start to finish. Best enjoyed lightly chilled or at room temperature, it pairs effortlessly with a wide variety of dishes, including sashimi, grilled seafood, steamed vegetables, light poultry preparations, and delicately seasoned Japanese cuisine.
