Description
Yamahai Tokubetsu Junmai Asahi Jikagumi from KK Ookurahonke in Nara is a direct-press tokubetsu junmai using Asahi rice fermented with the yamahai starter method. The jikagumi collection style means the sake is drawn directly from the press tank without blending, capturing the raw, immediate character of the brew. Asahi rice and yamahai fermentation together produce a sake with notable body, mild earthiness, and a naturally complex acidic structure.
