Description
This chotokusen daiginjo from Kikumasamune is brewed using the kimoto method and released as a shiboritate, meaning it is a freshly pressed, unaged sake bottled shortly after fermentation. The combination of the labor-intensive kimoto starter and the freshness of shiboritate creates a rare interplay between wild, lactic complexity and vibrant, youthful character.

Lightly sweet, melon aromas and pear evident on the tongue. Mellow and smooth, with slight acidity and dryness at the end. Easy drinking. Goes with a wide variety of foods. Good for beginners.
