Bursting with vibrant acidity, this premium Junmai Daiginjo, is brewed in artisanally small batches in the Akita cedar fermentation cask. Deep nuances of cedar oak are contrasted by ripe nashi pear and a finish that is surprisingly refreshing and crisp.

Yamamoto Brewery 山本酒造店

Among the aspects which make Yamamoto sake extraordinary are the intrepid and unusual products such as the Yamamoto Wine, a sake made with a combination of sake and chardonnay yeasts and matured in oak barrels and the Yamamoto Royal Flush, a sake made with five separate sake rice varieties and five separate yeasts, culminating in brews which are out of the box and captivating. Above all, Yamamoto sake is wonderfully easy drinking and vibrantly fresh tasting.
