Hokusosanyu - Junmai sake from Washinoo Co.,Ltd, Iwate
Description

Gin Ginga and Gin Otome, two Iwate-developed sake rice varieties, are polished to 60% for this junmai from the Hachimantai brewery. The blend of two regional rice varieties produces a sake with depth and steady umami, balanced by clean acidity and a finish that opens well with a gentle warming.
