Description
Beppin Junmai Ginjo Tsuyahime uses Tsuyahime, a premium Yamagata table rice variety grown on the fertile Shonai plain, repurposed here for sake brewing to highlight the prefecture's rice-growing excellence. As a Junmai Ginjo, it is fermented without added alcohol with moderate polishing that preserves both fruity ginjo character and a fuller rice texture. This crossover use of a renowned eating rice for sake production underscores Yamagata's exceptional agricultural heritage.
