Description
A tokubetsu junmai brewed in Himi, Toyama, using locally grown rice and the traditional fune pressing method. Steamed rice is cooled with the natural sea breeze from Toyama Bay, a practice central to the brewery's flavor identity. The sake shows a balance of rice umami and lively acidity, drinking cleanly across a range of temperatures.
