Sommelier's comment

A gentle and mellow scent like black tea and a hazelnut spread. Aged sake with a good balance of rich sweetness and strong acidity. It has a long finish and a sweet and fragrant taste.


Brewer: Aizu Sake Brewery

Founded around 1700 Minamiaizu Town, Fukushima Prefecture

We have been making sake since the middle of the Edo period in Minamiaizu Tajima, a post town on the highway connecting Nikko and Aizuwakamatsu. Under the harsh conditions of -20 ° C in the middle of winter, sake brewed with ultra-soft water pumped from 40m underground is characterized by its soft, beautiful and gentle sweetness. It has continued to fascinate people who come and go.
