Description
Kirakucho Junmai Daiginjo Jundai30 from Kita Shuzo in Shiga is polished to 30 percent remaining, meaning 70 percent of each grain is removed to reveal an ultra-refined core of pure starch that ferments into a sake of extraordinary delicacy and transparency. At this extreme polishing level, the sake achieves a featherlight body, a crystalline clarity, and a highly elevated, floral aromatic profile that pushes to the outer limits of what rice-based fermentation can achieve. The Kirakucho brand, built on Shiga's clean Lake Biwa water tradition, provides an ideal water base for this ambitious expression of precision polishing.
