Koshi No Kanbai Junmai Daiginjo “Muku”

Impeccably delicate, smooth, pure sweet steamed rice and chestnut notes with a light asian pear & white blossom backnote. Dry without being too crisp or sharp. A classic from the brewery that is credited for inventing the modern Niigata style.

This junmai daiginjo is brewed from Hyogo-grown Yamadanishiki rice, and clearly reveals the soft, fluffy, pillow-likecharacter ofthis rice variety. Feeling like a cloud on the palate, the body is round and expansive with lovely, lingering umami. This is a fairly simple sake, not trying to be ostentatious, but perfectly executed in every way.
