Yamamoto Sunshine Yellow (1800ml) 山本 サンシャイン イエロー

$140.00

Traditionally, yamahai sake is associated with richness, maturity, and warming comfort. "Sunshine Yellow" reimagines that heritage through a brighter lens. Conceived as a yamahai best enjoyed chilled in the warmth of summer, it showcases a fresher and more vibrant side of the style. With house-isolated yeast and carefully selected Akita-grown rice, the brewery sought to create a sake as uplifting and refreshing as sunlight on a summer afternoon.

「サンシャインイエロー」は、“山廃は熟成や燗酒向き”という既成概念に挑戦する一本です。冷やして楽しむ夏向けの山廃をテーマに、山本酒造独自の酵母と秋田県産米を用いて軽快で爽やかな表情を引き出しました。夏の日差しのような明るさと心地よさを感じさせる、新しい山廃の提案です。

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.
