Description
A junmai from Kojima Sohonten's Retsu series in Yamagata, representing the most straightforward expression within this purity-focused lineup. Brewed without added alcohol to junmai standards, it delivers a clean rice-forward profile shaped by Yamagata's soft water and careful fermentation practices. The Retsu name ('clarity') suggests even this entry-level expression upholds the brand's commitment to transparent, honest brewing.
