Description
Herun Tokubetsu Junmaishu is a special junmai from Kimpo Shuzo in Shimane, named after Lafcadio Hearn, the Irish-Greek writer who immortalized the legends and landscapes of the Izumo region. The tokubetsu junmai designation indicates rice polished beyond the standard junmai threshold or a distinctive production technique that elevates it from the baseline category. Shimane's ancient sake culture and high-quality local water provide the foundation for this characterful and regionally rooted expression.
