Tasting Notes: A unique take on Junmai Daiginjo, with a ripe banana-like aroma and flavor. Its mellow umami and robust aftertaste resemble those of a banana. The freshness and aroma really stand out since the sake is not pasteurized. A sake for banana fans or those looking for something new to try. This sake pairs well with sweet preparations and desserts.
