Brewed 100% with the rich yet complex bizen-omachi rice, also known as “the phantom sake rice” for its scarceness and difficulty to grow.
It has a smoother, juicy flavour profile (the Bordeaux red of the sake world), full of umami, and balanced with a tartness and crisp finish that still makes it moreish.
This sake is best enjoyed from a wine glass where you can enjoy its full aroma.
