Description

Ginjo made from Gohyakumangoku rice polished to 50% at this Niigata kura established in 1922 in Nagaoka, drawing on the kura's Ojikawa spring water. Gohyakumangoku at 50% polish delivers the clean, light-bodied character that defines Niigata's renowned tanrei karakuchi style. The Yaichi brand pursues a gentle, rounded expression of the classic Niigata ginjo profile.
