The highest grade of sake available in the world
Purist in its very best meaning - this is how the most successful sake brand in America at the moment presents itself. The award-winning brewery from Niigata on Honshū produces what is probably Japan's most exciting and highest-quality sake.
Tasting Notes
Chilled and in a thin-walled glass, the refreshing, light and silky mouthfeel comes into its own and the fine, slightly floral aromas and special taste can develop perfectly. The finish is smooth but dry and crisp and surprises with a slight spiciness at the back. Subtle notes of gala apple, lime zest and even a hint of cucumber and melon express the overwhelming freshness of this premium sake.
