Kinoene Yawaraka "Blessing of the Land"

Tasting Notes

Brewed exclusively from rice and rice koji - using Gohyakumangoku rice grown under contract in Shisui and Yachimata, and utilizing groundwater as the brewing water - this is a true Junmai proudly "Made in Chiba." It is a savory Junmai sake characterized by a mellow mouthfeel that preserves the inherent umami of the rice, offering a rich, robust, and substantial flavor profile.
