A jewel of a sake.
The Yamadanishiki rice variety gives the Kokuryu Ryu Daiginjo an amazingly complex and at the same time lively appearance. The light and rather sweet-dry scent of roses, nashi pear, cherry and candied fruits, combined with warm yeast, provide a gently aromatic and concise bouquet.
On the palate, notes of yeast, bitter orange (zest) and a fruity spiciness elegantly round out this Daiginjo, with a long aftertaste.
