Zaku Kaizan Ittekisui
Junmai DaiginjoThe name of our premium series sake comes from the Buddhist teaching that even in just a single drop of water, the immense life-giving value of water remains unchanged. The rice is polished away so that only 40% of the grain remains and is then brewed slowly at a low temperature. This junmai daiginjo sake’s name contains the character for the long-revered Japanese pagoda tree (槐), alluding to the noble and elegant taste and finish this sake possesses.
