Product information "Tatenokawa Junmai Dainginjo - 720ml"

Tatenokawa Shuryu Junmai Daiginjo is a luxurious sake that embodies the elegance of the ginjo style. Crafted from 100% Hyogo-grown Yamada-nishiki rice and polished to 50%, this premium sake offers a refined balance of flavour, aroma, and drinkability.

As a flagship Junmai Daiginjo in the esteemed Tatenokawa lineup, it boasts a rich, full-bodied profile with a distinctive floral bouquet that unfolds beautifully the moment it's poured. The use of Yamada-nishiki, revered as the "king of sake rice," enhances its depth, delivering a robust umami character and a long, satisfying finish.

Carefully aged under cool conditions, this sake develops a smooth, mellow complexity that elevates the drinking experience. Whether enjoyed fresh or after some maturation, it offers a unique journey of flavour evolution.

Unlike regular releases from Tatenokawa, Shuryu Junmai Daiginjo is a limited edition with a smaller production quantity—making it a must-try for sake connoisseurs and collectors. Experience the perfect harmony of flavour, craftsmanship, and exclusivity in every sip.
