Ginjoshu Akitabijin

Akita Bijin, meaning 'Akita beauty,' is a ginjo from Akitahomare Shuzo named after the region's celebrated reputation for beautiful women, a tradition attributed to the soft skin benefits of Akita's pure snowmelt water. The ginjo brewing process, which uses cooler fermentation temperatures and higher rice polishing ratios, produces a fragrant, floral sake with a light and elegant profile. Soft Akita water enhances the delicacy of the ginjo aroma, yielding a clean, refined sake.
