The aroma has a sweetness like that of steamed sweet potatoes, with a gentle fragrance of nuts and grass.
In the mouth, there is a mellow and soft attack of umami. The moist umami spreads, and the acidity extends into the latter half of the bottle. The acidity and pleasant bitter bitterness cut through the aftertaste and bring it to the finish.
As the name suggests, we recommend heating it up to 50-55 degrees Celsius to enjoy its body-sucking flavor.
(Kawada research), Happy New Year 🎍 and best wishes for the new year 🙇.
This sake changes dramatically when it is heated 😊It is good to drink it slowly together!

At Yamanoi, we have made the most of Asahi's clean and delicate flavor to create a refined and lustrous Junmai Daiginjo.
