An unfiltered Junmai Daiginjo with a delicate golden hue, created by blending sake aged at -10°C for up to one year. Just before release, it undergoes a final heat treatment to preserve its freshness and depth, resulting in a refined yet expressive sake. The absence of filtration gives it its natural pale golden colour, while maintaining a beautifully clear and elegant aroma. On the palate, it offers a refreshing yet structured profile with presence and balance, combining brightness with layered complexity. Highly awarded across global competitions, this sake stands as a premium expression of craftsmanship and consistency.
