A seasonal gem from Yamagata

This sake uses Dewa no Sato rice from Yamagata, which produces a distinct, “pretty” flavor that locals love. The brewmaster is particularly happy about using the yeast that they’ve isolated from Association No. 7, which often gives off a restrained aroma of banana. Being an unfined “muroka” and a “namazume” only pasteurized once, it brings raw, vibrant flavors to your table. It pairs well with hot pot and meat dishes.
