Description

Junmai Daiginjo Karyo, meaning auspicious dragon, from Kita Shuzo in Nara combines the majesty of the dragon, a symbol of power and good fortune in Japanese culture, with the brewery's highest pure-rice classification. Rice polished beyond 50 percent and brewed without added alcohol, this junmai daiginjo achieves the delicate, fragrant complexity of the daiginjo class while retaining the natural body and umami depth that distinguish pure-rice brewing from alcohol-added styles. Nara's clean water from the Yoshino highlands and the prefecture's venerable brewing history provide the foundation for this premium expression.

In the third year of Kyoho, Yamato's sake conveys tradition and joy. Inconspicuous I want to keep making sake with a strong presence, and the memories of the drinkers I think.
