Junmai Meicho

Rate this sake

Description

Junmai Meicho takes its name from 'Meicho' (้ณดๆฝฎ), meaning 'roaring tides,' a direct reference to the famous Naruto whirlpools formed by tidal currents in the strait separating Tokushima from Awaji Island. This pure rice junmai from Hananoharushuzo draws on the brewery's location in Naruto City to anchor its identity in one of Japan's most dramatic natural phenomena. The sake's clean, full-bodied character mirrors the powerful, purposeful energy that the Naruto Strait conveys.
