Matsunotsukasa DaiginjoJunmai Kuro

Matsunotsukasa Daiginjo Junmai Kuro is the black-label daiginjo from Matsuse Shuzo, a brewery founded in 1860 in Ryuo Town, Shiga, using 100% contract-grown Yamada Nishiki rice and the brewery's own house yeast to achieve a signature balance of elegant aroma and deep, rice-forward umami. Soft water drawn from 120 meters below the Aichi River alluvial plain supports a clean fermentation environment, and the daiginjo polishing level reveals a refined, floral aromatic profile over a smooth, layered body. The black label designates this as the top tier of the Junmai Kuro range.
