Description

Junmai Yamato from Kita Shuzo in Nara uses the ancient name Yamato, the historical designation for the Nara region and one of the oldest place names in Japan, to ground this pure-rice sake firmly in local identity and classical heritage. Brewed without added alcohol, the junmai method produces a fuller-bodied, umami-forward sake that reflects the natural character of the rice and Nara's soft mountain water. This straightforward expression places Nara's ancient brewing culture into an everyday, accessible junmai format without embellishment.

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.
