Description
This vintage-dated Junmai Daiginjo from Aoki Shuzo uses Yamadanishiki rice from Hyogo polished to an exceptional 37%, the highest level in the Kakurei lineup, and was brewed in the 2014 brewing year (BY). Extended cellaring after release allows the sake's delicate floral aromas and soft umami to knit together over time, rewarding those who seek depth alongside refinement.

Aoki Shuzo Co.,Ltd
Nigata
A sake brewery with a history of 300 years in Uonuma, a snowy country. Founded 2 years (1717). Aoki Sake Brewery's sake, which is represented by "crane -age", is created by the various grace of the snowy country and the traditional technique of Echigo Mori. Among the Niigata sake, which has many "Tanrei dry", we will aim to make the sake brewing of "Tanrei -kuchi", which leaves the original taste of sake rice, and inherits the taste for the next 100 years.
