Hitakami Nakadori Hyotan Junmai Daiginjo Black

$0.00

Tasting Notes

Expressive and luxurious on the nose, with aromas of ripe apple, steamed rice, chestnut, lychee, and fresh grass. The palate is bold and focused, showing the intensity and sharp definition of genshu, supported by lively acidity. Savory and complex, it finishes long yet clean, leaving a refined impression. This sake is bottled undiluted and aged in bottle, using only nakadori—the prized middle cut of the press, known for its elegance and balance. Crafted exclusively from “Special A” grade Yamada Nishiki grown in Hyogo, this limited release is produced at just 2,000 bottles annually.
