This beautiful Junmai Daiginjo is aged for a minimum of 3 years in Hakkai Brewery’s snow-storage room, called the Yukimuro. The flavor is initially subdued, before it unfolds the rich and solid sake that it is.
This sake is smooth and graceful, like the sekirei (Japanese wagtails) that swoop and glide over the Nishikigawa river that flows next to the brewery. Has an elegant, satisfying aroma and a beautiful, long finish.
Supple, powerful and dry sake with complex and funky notes of banana, earth, melon and nuts. Large-scale structure and mellow complexity from significant aging this sake is a big departure from sake available most anywhere in the world.
