Yamakawa Mitsuo, formed by four breweries in Yamagata Prefecture, is finally celebrating its 10th anniversary. To commemorate this anniversary this year, each brewery is brewing a celebratory sake in turn. The "Dewa Sanzu" rice used again this year is the most standard variety of sake rice in Yamagata Prefecture and is produced in large quantities. Highly polished rice gives it a clean and soft taste.
Yamagata Prefecture uses 100% rice grown under contract in the Kashiwaguraden district. And in honor of the 10th anniversary, Association No. 10 yeast was used for this year's product. This yeast is characterized by low acidity and a gorgeous, elegant ginjo aroma reminiscent of melon and pear. Slow fermentation at a low temperature produces a soft yet dignified finish with a well-balanced aroma and taste.
