Description

The Usuzakura Junmaishu is Masumoto Tobei Shuzo's core pure-rice offering from Higashi-Omi, Shiga, made entirely from Shiga-grown sake rice without any added alcohol. Brewed in modest quantities using inherited methods, it delivers a warm, slightly sweet rice-forward character with a soft body and clean, satisfying finish.
