As fresh as forest air
An excellent example of barrel-aged, or taru, sake. Taru sake usually has a yellow hue, but, by using carefully chosen, unprocessed sake, the brewers are able to produce an astounding clear taru sake. Aged in barrels made from the finest cedar, this sake holds an enchanting woody aroma and taste. Bottled, sealed, and delivered without losing any purity.CHARACTERISTICS
