Description
This fresh, unheated junmai from Asahara Shuzo is polished to 70% and brewed in the Ume (plum) label style, which emphasizes a clean, refreshing rice character with a gentle acidity. The nama format preserves the natural vibrancy of the fermentation. Part of the classic Biwanosazanami trio alongside the Matsu and Take labels.
