Sommelier's comment

As soon as you put it in your mouth, you will get an elegant acidity and a mellow aroma unique to aged sake such as banana, caramel and oak. It has enough sweetness, and the refreshing flavor like plum leaves a lingering finish. The acidity is great and the sharpness is not bad.


Brewer: Asahikawa Sake Brewery

Founded 1822 Kahoku Town, Yamagata Prefecture

Asahikawa Sake Brewery located in the Yamagata (Murayama) basin of Tohoku. Founded in the late Edo period, it has been focusing on manufacturing research of Junmaishu and Junmaiginjoshu in recent years while inheriting the tradition. At the same time, we are also working on research and development of aged sake, and the knowledge of the aging method, the type of sake, and the difference depending on the age of aging is drawing attention.
