Ultimate expression of classic “kimoto”

As new sake styles developed in the 20th century, Daishichi Brewing Company wanted to create a classic and noble sake with rich and deep flavors to represent the good old values. The layers of umami from the rice and expansive expressions it reveals once warmed, they believe, is only achieved by the long, robust fermentation of their kimoto process and the precise and careful carving of each grain of rice.

A great sake to enjoy with food! 🙌 Nose: Rich umami notes reminiscent of shiitake mushrooms🍄‍🟫, intense aromas Palate: A perfect balance of sweetness and umami, with notes of yogurt, shiitake mushrooms, kombu seaweed, and chocolate. Strong acidity with a clean finish. Full-bodied and substantial.
