Junmai Daiginjo made with Asahi rice, which is expected to have high potential as a sake rice. We have brewed the ultimate world-class food sake in the name of Hiryu. The honest sweetness of the rice and the clean, crisp quality of the sake allow you to enjoy the changes in flavor as you drink more and more, and as you eat more and more. It goes well with oysters, vichyssoise, and fish dishes. Another unexpected combination is with vinegared dishes and lychee fruits. Please enjoy it chilled in a wine glass or a thin rimmed glass.

This is one of my favorites along with Shirakami and Kunigon.
It has a gorgeous aroma and a crisp aftertaste, making it a sake that goes well with just about anything. It is also reasonably priced, so it really is a sake suitable for regular use.
I bought a bottle by name when I was addicted to the ship, and I truly believe it was a fateful encounter.
