Description

Toyobijin's Princess Michiko junmai daiginjo is brewed using a rose-derived yeast isolated through a Tokyo University of Agriculture project, with Yamada Nishiki and Saito no Shizuku rice at a 40% polishing ratio. The result is a sake with pronounced aromas of mango and banana, a refined sweetness on the palate, and a delicate, lingering finish.

An elegant aroma, yet pure and not overly showy. After drinking, the finish lingers like a ghost, leaving no trace to be seen, yet faintly wafting on.

Yamaguchi
Located at the northernmost tip of Yamaguchi prefecture, which is rich in nature, it is the 100th year since its founding in 2021. Under the motto of the royal road brewing that does not pretend to be a royal road, we are facing sake brewing every day aiming for sake like "water that has passed through rice".
