Description
Yamada Nishiki polished to 60% goes into this junmai ginjo, long sold under the nickname black label at Umenishiki Yamakawa. Rich ginjo aromas pair with a bold, concentrated umami and pronounced acidity typical of a genshu-style pure rice sake, making it well-suited to strongly flavored dishes or enjoyed on the rocks.
