Description
Akita Tsuru is the approachable junmaishu label from Maizuru Shuzo, the Yokote-based brewery founded in 1918 that commits fully to pure-rice brewing and extended cellar aging. It carries the hallmarks of the Akita style: a soft texture drawn from the region's clean water, balanced rice sweetness, and a clean finish that holds up well whether served chilled or warmed. An everyday table sake rooted in the traditional character of Akita.
